Question

How is the synthesis of ammonia represented?

Answer 1

Ammonia forms when nitrogen gas `(N_"2")` and hydrogen gas `(H_"2")` reacts.

Explanation:

The formula for ammonia is `NH_"3"`. Not to be confused with ammonium, which has a subscript of 4.

Ammonia forms when nitrogen gas `(N_"2")` and hydrogen gas `(H_"2")` reacts.

Chemical equation is a synthesis reaction:
`(N_"2")` + `3(H_"2")` `->` `(2NH_"3")`

In nature, ammonia is produced by the product of animal waste - urea + water `->` carbamine acid + ammonia. More information can be found here: Ammonia BMPs
