  2. Ammonium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_nitrate

    Ca(NO 3) 2 + 2 NH 3 + CO 2 + H 2 O → 2 NH 4 NO 3 + CaCO 3. The products, calcium carbonate and ammonium nitrate, may be separately purified or sold combined as calcium ammonium nitrate. Ammonium nitrate can also be made via metathesis reactions: (NH 4) 2 SO 4 + Ba(NO 3) 22 NH 4 NO 3 + BaSO 4 (NH 4) 2 SO 4 + Ca(NO 3) 22 NH 4 NO 3 ...

  3. Mole (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_(unit)

    The mole (symbol mol) is a unit of measurement, the base unit in the International System of Units (SI) for amount of substance, a quantity proportional to the number of elementary entities of a substance. One mole contains exactly 6.022 140 76 × 1023 elementary entities (approximately 602 sextillion or 602 billion times a trillion), which can ...

  4. Ammonia - Wikipedia

    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.

  5. Ammonium nitrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_nitrite

    Ammonium nitrite is a chemical compound with the chemical formula [NH4]NO2. It is the ammonium salt of nitrous acid. It is composed of ammonium cations [NH4]+ and nitrite anions NO− 2. It is not used in pure isolated form since it is highly unstable and decomposes into water and nitrogen, even at room temperature.

  6. Nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrate

    The nitrate anion is the conjugate base of nitric acid, consisting of one central nitrogen atom surrounded by three identically bonded oxygen atoms in a trigonal planar arrangement. The nitrate ion carries a formal charge of −1. [citation needed] This charge results from a combination formal charge in which each of the three oxygens carries a ...

  7. Ammonium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium

    Infobox references. 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).

  8. Molar mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_mass

    The molar mass of atoms of an element is given by the relative atomic mass of the element multiplied by the molar mass constant, M u ≈ 1.000 000 × 10 −3 kg/mol = 1 g/mol. For normal samples from earth with typical isotope composition, the atomic weight can be approximated by the standard atomic weight [2] or the conventional atomic weight.

  9. Ammonium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_sulfate

    Ammonium sulfate is made by treating ammonia with sulfuric acid: 2 NH3 + H2SO4 → (NH4)2SO4. A mixture of ammonia gas and water vapor is introduced into a reactor that contains a saturated solution of ammonium sulfate and about 2% to 4% of free sulfuric acid at 60 °C. Concentrated sulfuric acid is added to keep the solution acidic, and to ...
