Answer:

here is a your answer.

Explanation:

The initial step of this process, known as nitritation, involves a type of bacteria called nitrosomonas. During nitritation, nitrosomonas convert NH3 (ammonia) into NO2 (nitrogen dioxide). The chemical equation for this process is NH3 + 1.5 O2 --> NO2- + H+ + H20..

Explanation:

Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) occurs when atmospheric nitrogen is converted to ammonia by an enzyme called nitrogenase. The reaction for BNF is: N2 + 8 H+ + 8 e− → 2 NH3 + H2. This type of reaction results in N2 gaining electrons (see above equation) and is thus termed a reduction reaction.
