  2. Carbon nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nitride

    Beta carbon nitride - a solid with a formula β- C3N4, which is predicted to be harder than diamond. Graphitic carbon nitride - g- C3N4, with important catalytic and sensor properties. [2] Dicyanocarbodiimide NC-N=C=N-CN - another C3N4 monomer (was detected in products of photolysis of triazido-s-triazine). [3] C3N5 - a combined triazole and ...

  3. Graphitic carbon nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphitic_carbon_nitride

    Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4) is a family of carbon nitride compounds with a general formula near to C 3 N 4 (albeit typically with non-zero amounts of hydrogen) and two major substructures based on heptazine and poly (triazine imide) units which, depending on reaction conditions, exhibit different degrees of condensation, properties and ...

  4. Carbon cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_cycle

    The carbon cycle is that part of the biogeochemical cycle by which carbon is exchanged among the biosphere, pedosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere of Earth. Other major biogeochemical cycles include the nitrogen cycle and the water cycle. Carbon is the main component of biological compounds as well as a major component of many ...

  5. Biogeochemical cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biogeochemical_cycle

    A biogeochemical cycle, or more generally a cycle of matter, [ 1 ] is the movement and transformation of chemical elements and compounds between living organisms, the atmosphere, and the Earth's crust. Major biogeochemical cycles include the carbon cycle, the nitrogen cycle and the water cycle. In each cycle, the chemical element or molecule is ...

  6. Boron nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boron_nitride

    The wurtzite form of boron nitride (w-BN; point group = C 6v; space group = P6 3 mc) has the same structure as lonsdaleite, a rare hexagonal polymorph of carbon. As in the cubic form, the boron and nitrogen atoms are grouped into tetrahedra. [6] In the wurtzite form, the boron and nitrogen atoms are grouped into 6-membered rings.

  7. Haber process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haber_process

    Fritz Haber, 1918. The Haber process, [1] also called the Haber–Bosch process, is the main industrial procedure for the production of ammonia. [2] [3] It converts atmospheric nitrogen (N 2) to ammonia (NH 3) by a reaction with hydrogen (H 2) using a finely divided iron metal catalyst:

  8. Nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitride

    Platinum nitride and osmium nitride may contain N 2 units, and as such should not be called nitrides. [11] [12] Nitrides of heavier members from group 11 and 12 are less stable than copper nitride (Cu 3 N) and zinc nitride (Zn 3 N 2): dry silver nitride (Ag 3 N) is a contact explosive which may detonate from the slightest touch, even a falling ...

  9. β-Carbon nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Β-Carbon_nitride

    β-Carbon nitride (beta -carbon nitride), β-C 3 N 4, is a superhard material predicted to be harder than diamond. [2] The material was first proposed in 1985 by Amy Liu and Marvin L. Cohen. Examining the nature of crystalline bonds they theorised that carbon and nitrogen atoms could form a particularly short and strong bond in a stable crystal ...
