Bonus: Green peas are a very environmentally friendly food due to their ability to
take nitrogen gas in the air and convert it to usable forms.
: Green peas are a very environmentally friendly food due to their ability to
take nitrogen gas in the air and convert it to usable forms.
With the help of bacteria in the soil, peas and other pulse crops are able to
take nitrogen gas from the air and convert it into more complex and usable forms.
He will soon be solving fundamental questions around the complex multi-electron reduction that
takes nitrogen gas to ammonia for fertilizer.
Not exact matches
Along with familiar
gases like carbon dioxide,
nitrogen and oxygen, each breath holds a vaporized record of the foods you've eaten, the places you've been, the drugs you've
taken, the pollutants you've encountered and the general operation of your internal organs.
Any
nitrogen not
taken up by plants is met by soil microbes that turn the fertilizer into nitrous oxide, an ozone - depleting
gas that is also 300 times more potent than carbon dioxide.
As no direct coordination via the
nitrogen atom
took place, the researchers assume a reaction from the
gas phase with a potential activation on the ammonia molecule.
More and more
gas will be needed, however, as flat - panel LCD televisions become standard in American living rooms and the fledgling thin - film solar cell industry
takes off;
nitrogen trifluoride is used as a cleaning agent in the manufacture of both.
A major culprit is fertilizer manufacture, which
takes nonreactive
nitrogen gas in the atmosphere and turns it into ammonia via the so - called Haber - Bosch process.
Helium
took the part of
nitrogen and the other
gases in the atmosphere, while sulphur hexafluoride played the role of water.
Taking water out of this, i.e., leaving the practically 100 %
nitrogen and oxygen ocean of
gas, this blanket warming would give a temp of 67 °C.
They called carbon dioxide, and oxygen and
nitrogen, «ideal
gases», and said they behave as per basic ideal
gas description (pre Van der Waals), in other words, they have
taken all the properties and process of real
gases out of their «
gases» and reduced them to hard dots with no mass, (no volume, weight or attraction and therefore nothing to be subject to gravity), and they say these travel at great speeds through empty space as per ideal
gas, bouncing off each other in elastic collisions and so «thoroughly mixing» that they can't be unmixed (without an immense amount of work being done, so for all practical purposes can not be unmixed).
If
nitrogen gas, which makes up 80 % of the atmosphere, radiated «according to it's temperature», how would anyone be able to
take an IR photograph that didn't look like a photo
taken in a thick fog?
Created, for example, by
taking out the whole of the Water Cycle and
taking out rain from the Carbon Cycle and changing the real
gases oxygen and
nitrogen to ideal to
take out heat transfer by convection which transfers heat away from the surface and sets up convection currents which bring cold air back to the surface, winds.
This absolutely means no chemicals, not even synthetic
nitrogen which
takes petroleum (natural
gas) to produce and is hugely polluting (contributes to acid rain.)
