Description

Ammonia is a Compound of Nitrogen and Hydrogen with the formula NH3.
A stable binary Hydride, and the simplest Pnictogen Hydride, Ammonia is a colourless Gas with a distinct pungent smell.
It is a common Nitrogenous Waste, particularly among Aquatic Organisms, and it contributes significantly to the nutritional needs of terrestrial organisms by serving as a precursor to 45 percent of the world's Food and Fertilizers.
Ammonia, either directly or indirectly, is also a Building Block for the Synthesis of many Pharmaceutical Products and is used in many commercial Cleaning Products.
It is mainly collected by downward displacement of both Air and Water.
Mass Production uses the Haber–Bosch Process, a Gas Phase Reaction between Hydrogen (H2) and Nitrogen (N2) at a moderately-elevated temperature (450 °C) and high pressure (100 standard atmospheres (10 MPa)).
