  2. Haber process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haber_process

    Fritz Haber, 1918. The Haber process, [1] also called the Haber–Bosch process, is the main industrial procedure for the production of ammonia. [2] [3] It converts atmospheric nitrogen (N 2) to ammonia (NH 3) by a reaction with hydrogen (H 2) using finely divided iron metal as a catalyst:

  3. Nitric oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_oxide

    Nitric oxide (nitrogen oxide or nitrogen monoxide [1]) is a colorless gas with the formula NO. It is one of the principal oxides of nitrogen . Nitric oxide is a free radical : it has an unpaired electron , which is sometimes denoted by a dot in its chemical formula ( • N=O or • NO).

  5. Thermal decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_decomposition

    When water is heated to well over 2,000 °C (2,270 K; 3,630 °F), a small percentage of it will decompose into OH, monatomic oxygen, monatomic hydrogen, O 2, and H 2. [3] The compound with the highest known decomposition temperature is carbon monoxide at ≈3870 °C (≈7000 °F). [citation needed]

  6. Nitrous oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrous_oxide

    In 2022 the IPCC reported that: "The human perturbation of the natural nitrogen cycle through the use of synthetic fertilizers and manure, as well as nitrogen deposition resulting from land-based agriculture and fossil fuel burning has been the largest driver of the increase in atmospheric N2O of 31.0 ± 0.5 ppb (10%) between 1980 and 2019." [61]

  7. Steam reforming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_reforming

    Steam reforming or steam methane reforming (SMR) is a method for producing syngas (hydrogen and carbon monoxide) by reaction of hydrocarbons with water. Commonly natural gas is the feedstock. The main purpose of this technology is often hydrogen production , although syngas has multiple other uses such as production of ammonia or methanol .

  8. Disproportionation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disproportionation

    These unstable and highly toxic compounds will disproportionate in aqueous solution to form gaseous nitrogen (N 2) and ammonium ions, or ammonia, depending on pH conditions, as it can be conveniently verified by means of the Frost diagram for nitrogen: [12] Under acidic conditions, hydrazoic acid disproportionates as: 3 HN 3 + H + → 4 N 2 ...

  9. Hydroxyl radical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxyl_radical

    Most notably hydroxyl radicals are produced from the decomposition of hydroperoxides (ROOH) or, in atmospheric chemistry, by the reaction of excited atomic oxygen with water. It is also an important radical formed in radiation chemistry, since it leads to the formation of hydrogen peroxide and oxygen , which can enhance corrosion and stress ...
