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

Why is having too many nitrates and nitrates in the soil is so bad?

Nitrates are a fertilizer, so when nitrates hit a pond or stream, the plants there could overtake and drain all the oxygen out of all the plants, so the plants will die. The animals living there are also affected, because for example, fish in the water could die if a water hyacinth gets nitrates because the fish in the water will not get any sunlight.

What is the product of this equation (NH4)(NO3) plus (C4H6O2)?

C4H6O2 can have any number of structures. If it is the acid (crotonic acid), the the reaction will beHC4H5O2 + NH4NO3 ==> NH4C4H5O2 + HNO3

What is The equation between ammonium sulphate and sodium hydroxide?

The equation between ammonium sulfate and sodium hydroxide can be written as (NH4)2SO4 + 2NaOH -> 2NH3 + 2H2O + Na2SO4, where solid ammonium sulfate reacts with sodium hydroxide solution to produce ammonia, water, and sodium sulfate.


How many ions are present NH4?

The NH4 molecule consists of one nitrogen atom and four hydrogen atoms, and does not contain any ions on its own.


What should N02 be in freshwater tank?

below 30 ppm at all timesNitrates (NO3) have been studied and observations show some species of fish can withstand up to 100 ppm Nitrates without showing ailments. An aquarium should never exceed 30 ppm and a good safe level is around 15 - 20 ppm. If you have no plants in an established aged aquarium then 0 is just fine, but unlikely.


Why are bacteria important to the nitrogen cycle?

because when bacteria convert ammonia into nitrates and nitrites, producers need them to make proteins, and then consumers eat the producers and reuse the nitrogen to make their own proteins.


When to change water in a freshwater tank?

A healthy cycled and sensibly stocked tank should get small partial (about 20%) water changes once a week with dechlorinated water. Once a fortnight is possible if the tank is understocked with fish with a light bioload and heavily planted. If you do water changes less regularly you run the risk of either ammonia/nitrites creeping up and killing your fish or nitrates creeping up and causing algae blooms and long term harm to your fish. Any fish added to a tank with high nitrates will die quickly too.
