● Nitrogen is the most prevalent element in living organisms.
● Plants compete with microbes for the limited nitrogen in soil.
● The process of conversion of nitrogen to ammonia is termed as nitrogen fixation.
● In nature, lightning and UV radiation provide energy to Industrial combustions, forest fires, automobile exhausts and power-generating stations are also sources ofvatmospheric nitrogen oxides.
● Actually, the decomposition of the organic nitrogen of the dead plants and animals into ammonia is called ammonification.
● Some of this ammonia volatilizes and re-enters the atmosphere but most of it is converted into nitrate by soil bacteria in the following steps:-
→ 2NH3 + 302 → 2NO2 + 2H+ + 2H20
→ 2NO2 + O2 → 2NO3 -
