Question

What is the role of lightning in nitrogen cycle?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey Buddy here's ur answer

The enormous energy of lightning breaks nitrogen molecules and enables their atoms to combine with oxygen in the air forming nitrogen oxides. These dissolve in rain, forming nitrates, that are carried to the earth.

Answer 2

QUESTION:-

What is the role of lightning in nitrogen cycle?

ANSWER:-

The Role Of Lightning In Nitrogen Cycle

• A Molecule Of Nitrogen in the air comprises two atoms which are attached together very tightly. For the absorption of nitrogen by plants, the two atoms must be segregated which requires a tremendous blast of energy to break the two molecules of nitrogen and for converting them to a compound that can be used by the plants. For this separation of two molecules of nitrogen, the role of lightning comes into play.

• When the blasts occur due to lightning through the atmosphere it results in the breaking apart of nitrogen molecules which allows them to react with oxygen in the air for the formation of nitrogen oxides. These two nitrates are dissolved by the rain which then carries them to Earth and into the soil. Nitrates are deemed a “super fertilizer.” Hence, lightning helps for fertilization of the soil and enables plants to green up sooner.
