7. Ammonium phosphate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_phosphate

   Both triammonium salts evolve ammonia. In contrast to the unstable nature of the triammonium salts, the diammonium phosphate (NH 4) 2 HPO 4 and monoammonium salt (NH 4)H 2 PO 4 are stable materials that are commonly used as fertilizers to provide plants with fixed nitrogen and phosphorus. [3] Ammonium phosphate is the main ingredient in pink ...
