  2. Ammonia solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_solution

    Ammonia solution, also known as ammonia water, ammonium hydroxide, ammoniacal liquor, ammonia liquor, aqua ammonia, aqueous ammonia, or (inaccurately) ammonia, is a solution of ammonia in water. It can be denoted by the symbols NH 3 (aq). Although the name ammonium hydroxide suggests a salt with the composition [NH+4] [OH−], it is actually ...

  3. Ammonium bicarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_bicarbonate

    Ammonium bicarbonate is an inorganic compound with formula (NH 4)HCO 3. The compound has many names, reflecting its long history. Chemically speaking, it is the bicarbonate salt of the ammonium ion. It is a colourless solid that degrades readily to carbon dioxide, water and ammonia.

  4. Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brønsted–Lowry_acid...

    t. e. The Brønsted–Lowry theory (also called proton theory of acids and bases[1]) is an acid–base reaction theory which was first developed by Johannes Nicolaus Brønsted and Thomas Martin Lowry independently in 1923. [2][3] The basic concept of this theory is that when an acid and a base react with each other, the acid forms its conjugate ...

  5. Haber process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haber_process

    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: This reaction is slightly favorable in terms of enthalpy, but is disfavored in ...

    H2NCH2CH2OH → NH3 + CH3CHO. Ammonia is both a metabolic waste and a metabolic input throughout the biosphere. It is an important source of nitrogen for living systems. Although atmospheric nitrogen abounds (more than 75%), few living creatures are capable of using atmospheric nitrogen in its diatomic form, N2 gas.

  7. Ammonolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonolysis

    Ammonolysis. In chemistry, ammonolysis (/am·mo·nol·y·sis/) is the process of splitting ammonia into . [1] Ammonolysis reactions can be conducted with organic compounds to produce amines (molecules containing a nitrogen atom with a lone pair, :N), [2] or with inorganic compounds to produce nitrides. [3][4] This reaction is analogous to ...

  8. Ammonium carbamate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_carbamate

    Ammonium carbamate. Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). Ammonium carbamate is a chemical compound with the formula [NH4] [H2NCO2] consisting of ammonium cation NH+ 4 and carbamate anion NH2COO−. It is a white solid that is extremely soluble in water, less so in alcohol.

  9. Ammonium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium

    Ammonium is a modified form of ammonia that has an extra hydrogen atom. It is a positively charged (cationic) molecular ion with the chemical formula NH+ 4 or [NH4]+. It is formed by the addition of a proton (a hydrogen nucleus) to ammonia (NH3).
