What are salts that are converted to nitrites by bacteria?
Nitrates
What Converts dead matter to soil nitrates or nitrites?
Rhizobium
Does nitrates or nitrites contain more oxygen atoms?
A nitrate is represented by -NO3 whereas a nitrite is represented by -NO2. So to answer your question, nitrates have 1 oxygen atom more than nitrites.
What organisms convert nitrogen into a form that is by humans?
Bacteria Ammonia, nitrates, nitrites
Are there any nitrates and nitrites in NH4 plus?
The ammonium (NH4+) ion does not contain nitrates or nitrites, which are entirely different ions, the the formulas NO3- and NO2- respectively. However, Ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3 is a fairly common substance. There is also a such thing as ammonium nitrite NH4NO2
Do amines and nitrates cancel each other in the stomach?
Amines + Nitrates/Nitrites = carcinogenic nitrosamines
What are three products of nitrogen fixation?
Ammonia, nitrates, nitrites
What are salts that are converted to nitrites by bacteria?
Nitrates
What are two chemical properties in nitrogen?
nitrates and nitrites
What products of nitrogen fixation?
Ammonia, nitrates, nitrites
What Converts dead matter to soil nitrates or nitrites?
Rhizobium
What causes nitrits in urine?
According to WebMD: Nitrites. Bacteria that cause a urinary tract infection (UTI) make an enzyme that changes urinary nitrates to nitrites. Nitrites in urine show a UTI is present.
Does nitrates or nitrites contain more oxygen atoms?
A nitrate is represented by -NO3 whereas a nitrite is represented by -NO2. So to answer your question, nitrates have 1 oxygen atom more than nitrites.
What do nitrates and organic matter produce?
Nitrogen gas becomes the ultimate product of nitrates and organic matter and complete the nitrogen cycle. Organic matter converts into ammonium, which oxidizes into ammonia and then into nitrites. Nitrites oxidize into nitrates, which reduce into nitrogen gas.
Explain how the development of a red color on the addition of zinc is a negative test?
zinc reduces nitrates to nitrites. The development of red color therefore verifies that nitrates were not reduced to nitrites by the organism. If the nitrates were not reduced, a negative nitrate reduction reaction has occurred
What organisms convert nitrogen into a form that is by humans?
Bacteria Ammonia, nitrates, nitrites
Living organisms require nitrogen to make nitrates and nitrites which are used to build?
proteins
