AMMONIA

Assalammualaikum..and hello everyone.Now I came back and my blog this time is about Ammonia.

What is Ammonia?Actually ammonia was one of our very useful compound in the industry.For example,Ammonia were used for  nitrogen fertilisers such as ammonium fosfat.Besides that, Ammonia also used for manufacturing of nitric acid through Ostwald process and in manufacturing cleaning agents such as detergent and for manufacture some explosive materials.

Furthermore, Ammonia has lot of unique characteristics. Ammonia was a colorless gas and  smelly.Ammonia density also less than air and it was a weak alkalis if dissolved in water.

Now,we going to know how Ammonia was be produced.The proses is known as Haber process.Actually,this process was been named by German chemist, Fritz Haber.In this process,manufacture  Ammonia is by the reaction between nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas. In haber process, one volume of nitrogen and 3 volume of hydrogen get mixed up and  react at optimum condition as follows under 200 to 500 atmosphere pressure,450 to 550 temperature heat and ammonia gas was be produced.After that,the ammonia gas that we got will condensed and cooled to be a ammonia fluid.

However,the process of making Ammonia would cause lot of negative impact to environment,which is global warming due to the released carbon dioxide from the haber process. Plus,the widespread use of fertilisers will cause a pollutions such as air pollution.It will be cause the acid rain.The rain will flow into the river and the sea.Cause of the high pH of acid rain that flow intrough the sea and river,the acuatic animals and plants will face a high risks to die.The soil at the land also will acidic and will cause the plants and tree die.This will cause lack of oxygen to be inhaled by human and will affect human health involving respiratory problems such as asthma and shortness of breath. Thats all from me for this time.Thank you for reading my blog.
