In everyday life, ammonia is often used, but they call it both ammonia and ammonia, remaining in full confidence that this is the same thing.

In fact, these are different substances that differ from each other in their origin, state of aggregation and chemical formulas. related to these three different substances only a strong ammonia smell.

In order to once and for all be convinced that ammonia and ammonia are one and the same, it is enough to turn to the history of their origin and look at their chemical formulas.

Ammonia - hydrogen nitride, gas with molar mass 17 g/mol, chemical formula - NH3.

Ammonia or ammonia alcohol - a liquid with chemical formula NH4OH.

Ammonia is a salt with the chemical formula - NH4Cl.

Origin of ammonia

The history of the discovery of natural gas ammonia has two legends. According to the first legend, near the temple egyptian god Amon, where religious rites were performed, people sniffed a pair of camel excrement, from which they fell into a trance. These pairs were named "ammonia".

According to the second legend, in northern Africa, in the area of the oasis of Ammon, there was a crossroads of caravan routes. There passed great amount animals, the road was littered with their feces and plentifully watered with urine, which evaporated and released a gas that was called "ammonia".

Concerning scientific discovery gas with the name "ammonia", it dates back to 1785. The chemical formula of the gas, NH3, was determined by the French scientist C. L. Berthollet and named it "ammonia".

But back in 1774, the English scientist D. Priestley received an identical gas, which he gave the name "alkaline air", but chemical composition could not bring out.

Ammonia (ammonia in Latin) is a colorless gas with a specific smell, lighter than air, chemically active, liquefies at a temperature of -33 C; highly soluble in water alkaline reaction; interacts with hydrochloric acid and forms an ammonium salt: NH3 + HCl = NH4Cl, which decomposes when heated: NH4Cl = NH3 + HCl.

Ammonia is obtained in two ways - industrial and laboratory. At laboratory method ammonia is obtained by heating alkalis and ammonium salts:

NH4Cl + KOH = NH3 + KCl + H2O;
NH4 + + OH - = NH 3 + H2O.

AT industrial environment ammonia is first produced in gaseous form, and then it is liquefied and brought to 25% aqueous solution called ammonia water.

The synthesis of ammonia is a very important chemical production, since ammonia is a fundamental element for many other chemical technologies and productions. Thus, ammonia is used in industrial refrigeration as a refrigerant; is a bleach in the processing and dyeing of fabrics; indispensable in the production process nitric acid, nitrogen fertilizers, ammonium salts, synthetic fibers - nylon and capron.

The industrial method for the synthesis of ammonia was invented in 1909 by the German chemist Fritz Haber. In 1918, for his discovery in chemistry, he received Nobel Prize. The first ammonia plant was launched in 1913 in Germany, and in 1928 ammonia production was already established in Russia.

Origin of ammonia

Ammonia (Hammoniaci P. Sal) is a salt, the chemical formula is NH4Cl (ammonium chloride).

Ammonium chloride is of volcanic origin; found in hot springs, groundwater evaporation, in deposits of guano and native sulfur; Formed by burning coal seams or debris accumulations. It has the appearance of sagging, earthy deposits, crusts or massive skeletal crystalline accumulations, clusters and dendrites.

Pure ammonia is colorless or white, with a glassy sheen. Depending on the impurities present in it, the color can be all shades of yellow, brown, gray, different shades of red, brown.

When heated, ammonia is released from ammonia, it dissolves well in water. The solution tastes burning caustic - salty, the smell is sharp ammonia.

Ammonium chloride has been known to people since very ancient times and was used in ritual ceremonies, in the production and dyeing of fabrics, as well as by alchemists for soldering metals and alloying gold.

In the Middle Ages, they learned how to get artificial ammonia from the horns and hooves of a large cattle, which was called the "spirit of the deer horn."

Origin of ammonia

Liquor ammonia caustici is its Latin name.

This is a 10% ammonia water solution with the chemical formula NH4OH; colorless transparent homogeneous mixture that can evaporate; with a specific smell of ammonia, which persists when frozen.

The mention of its use by Eastern alchemists dates back to the 8th century, and by European alchemists to the 13th century. Their records of the recipes they used have survived to this day.

Nowadays, they receive in an industrial and simple household way:

industrial synthesis is carried out from the gaseous state of hydrogen, nitrogen and air using certain catalysts, and then get water-alcohol solution, which has a sharp ammonia smell;
a simple household method is based on diluting 25% ammonia water to a 10% solution.

Areas of use

The scope of ammonia and ammonia alcohol is wide, it is used in almost all spheres of human life, ranging from technological processes and ending with medicine and domestic needs.

How much can it cost in pharmacies? The answer is very inexpensive. Get it, use it, but be extremely careful.

Attention, only TODAY!

Ammonia is a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen of inorganic origin (hydrogen nitrite: NH 3). In our life we meet a very wide use various ways its application.

Ammonia can take various states aggregation and, like other compounds, can be either in gaseous or liquid form. Ammonia is a liquid with a not very pleasant smell.

A substance often used in chemistry classes at school to show what chemical burns are. Ammonia has yellow, it can be recognized by its characteristic smell. If ammonia vapor is mixed with air in sufficient proportion and the right amount, then an explosion may occur, and, consequently, its share in the air, after which it is greatly reduced.

Nowadays, ammonia can be found in many places, ranging from large industrial plants, where it is used for cold storage, and finds applications in medicine. After appropriate treatment, the 10% ammonia solution is ammonia (ammonia hydrate: NH 3 ·H 2 O). Previously, ammonia was used in the composition of smelling salts. Few people, however, know that it is used as a component of paints or ... baking powder. As you can see, depending on what form the connection is in, it can have different properties.

The most common use of ammonia is in refrigeration applications, the refrigeration industry, mainly because of its thermodynamic properties. However, ammonia can also be used as a solvent, in particular for dissolving metals.

Ammonia has been found in ancient egypt near the temple of Amun, to which he owes his name. Near sacred place, was first discovered composition of camel dung.

Application in medicine

Ammonia is one of the osmogens (new pharmaceutically acceptable amine salts) that a person can detect by smell.
