Oxidation numbers, also known as oxidation states, are essential tools used in chemistry to understand the behavior of chemical reactions and redox processes. They provide insights into how elements ...

This common pitch is compelling: Filling your car’s tires with nitrogen will reduce air loss, boost fuel economy, reduce rolling resistance, and improve safety. Some cars are even sold with the ...

After a comprehensive study of plants across the United States, researchers have arrived at the unexpected conclusion that plants able to fix atmospheric nitrogen are most diverse in arid regions of ...

The cyclic nature of specific conversions in the nitrogen cycle imposes strict limitations to the conversions observed in nature and explains for example why anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) ...

Abstract—Oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) appears to play an important role in atherogenesis. Although the precise mechanisms of LDL oxidation in vivo are unknown, several lines ...

Landowners in two Western Iowa watersheds are applying nitrogen fertilizer - in the forms of commercial fertilizer and livestock manure - at more than double the recommended rate, causing higher ...

A new paper sheds light on how life and surface chemistry have evolved alongside each other in Earth’s history. The study analyzed geochemical records of the Great Oxidation 2.3 billion years ago to ...

ABSTRACT: Hippeastrum (Hippeastrum hybridum), a native of Central and South America, is a bulbous ornamental flowering plant in the Amaryllidaceae family. However, the correct balance of NH4 to ...
