Interpretation: The sources of nitrogen and the nitrogen compounds present in surface water are to be given.
Concept introduction:
Nitrogen cycle: The cycle by which conversion of nitrogen into various chemical forms are done through biological and physical process. Nitrogen cycle is an important process in-order to balance the eco system. The conversion of nitrogen into its oxidation state is the most important thing.
Contamination of water bodies: Water bodies are getting contaminated as a result of the human activities. The presence of nitrates, phosphates…in the sources of water are making it unavailable for drinking. Industrial waste, sewage waste are the main sources for the presence of the chemicals in water sources.
