2. NITROGEN MOLECULES
It is difficult to think that some good things come from the powerful bust of
electrical energy. During thunderstorms, the nitrogen and oxygen from the air react to
form oxides of nitrogen. These oxides dissolve in the rain and are absorbed by the soil,
fertilized with nitrogen. According to studies, more than 50% of usable nitrogen is
generated from the atmosphere in this process.
Explain the process that happens to nitrogen and oxygen during a thunderstorm
in terms of chemical bonding. What is the benefit of this bond? (P)
3.
ALLOYS
Metal alloys are created through metallic bonding. Two examples of alloys are
brass (zinc and copper) and steel (carbon and iron). Metallic bonding is utilized for its
conductive properties to help transfer electricity throughout a house via copper wiring.
Metallic bonds also exist between cast iron, which is made up of iron and carbon,
bronze (Cu &Sn), stainless steel (Fe, Cr, C, In), and so on. It is used mostly to improve
the…
