Textbook Question
Chapter 11.12, Problem 11.26YT
- a. Ammonia (NH3) is applied to soil in the form of anhydrous ammonia; that is, ammonia without water. Ammonia is very soluble in water. Explain why. Hint: Revisit Chapter 8.
- b. When ammonia is mixed with water, the resulting solution is basic. Explain why. Including the ammonium Ion (
Hint: Revisit Chapter 8.
- c. According to Figure 11.32, which chemical species of nitrogen Is used (assimilated) by plants?
- d. Microbes in the soil interconvert the chemical species of nitrogen. Before the ammonium ion can be assimilated by plants, another chemical species is formed. What is it?
Figure 11.32
