Even though the other applications are essential, the manufacturing of substances containing nitrogen compounds consumes the vast majority of elemental nitrogen. It’s difficult to get molecular nitrogen to enter other combinations because the triple bond between atoms in nitrogen molecules is so strong. The Haber-Bosch process for producing ammonia is the most widely used commercial […]

Configuration of D/L-Glucose indicates the alignment and adjustment of the atoms of carbohydrates and acids in the structure of glucose. Glucose is the most abundantly available carbohydrate; it is very common in nature. The definitive physical trait of glucose is its sweet taste. Chemically glucose is obtained from starch. The configuration of D/L-Glucose tells us

The Cannizzaro reaction is an equilibrium process in which two molecules of an aldehyde combine with a hydroxyl radical to produce a primary alcohol and a carboxylic acid. This is illustrated in the example of benzaldehyde converting benzyl alcohol to benzoic acid. Examples of the Cannizzaro reaction include vanillin, benzaldehyde, syringaldehyde, and formaldehyde, which lack

Nitrogen is a mainly diatomic nonmetal gas that is generally colourless, odourless, and tasteless. In most compounds, it is trivalent because its outer shell has five electrons. The majority of nitrogen molecules are present in the atmosphere. Nitrogen is found in the form of nitrates and nitrites in water and soil. All of these elements

I Ammonia is a gas made from hydrogen and Nitrogen and important for plants and animals. Nitric acid is a very corrosive mineral acid. Here we will discuss Ammonia and nitric acid, Preparation of Ammonia and nitric acid, properties of Ammonia and nitric acid, Structures of Ammonia and nitric acid and the uses of ammonia

Among the many different functional groups, amides are carbonyl groups connected to nitrogen, hydrogen, or both by a single bond. Amines and ammonia are nitrogen-containing compounds, and amides fall within the ammonia category. Changing the hydroxyl group (OH) of an acid to the amino group results in a molecule that is neither acidic nor neutral
