Nitrogen tends to be 'the' element in ordinary, non organic, conventional, commercial, chemical fertilizer. But there also are ordinary fertilizers that may have greater percentages of phosphorus or potassium. Whatever the percentage, these fertilizers are known as N[itrogen] P[hosphorus] K [Potassium] fertilizers in honor of their constituent elements. The container gives the percentage of each element within the total amount of fertilizer.
The first element in the fourth period, which is used in making fertilizer, is potassium.
No, oxygen is not a group 15 element; it is a group 16 element. Oxygen is not used directly in fertilizer production but is involved in key processes such as nutrient uptake by plants during respiration and photosynthesis.
It is an element. Elements are composed of atoms, and atoms of elements combine chemically to form compounds.
Phosphorus is an acid-forming element that is in garden fertilizer.Specifically, phosphorus is a major nutrient ingredient in garden fertilizer. It can be broken down into phosphoric acid. Garden fertilizer also contains nitrogen and potassium as its other two main nutrient ingredients. Potassium is an alkaline-forming element.
Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are the elements in ordinary fertilizer.Specifically, the term "ordinary fertilizer" tends to refer to synthetic, non-organic, conventional, commercial, artificial products that businesses, hardware stores and businesses make available for purchase. Such fertilizers are known as "NPK" fertilizers, in reference to the symbols of each of the three chemical elements listed above. The reason lies in the predominance of those elements in the fertilizer. The three elements dominate, because in nature they are among the six most important nutrients that roots need to take in for healthy plant growth.
Phosphorous! That's why there are no more sulfates in fertilizers because of environmental problems.
Nitrogen.
Nitrogen is.
Potassium is the element that used to be first to make fertilizer.
A good fertilizer for agriculture is usually high in nitrogen.
Nitrogen.
Nitrogen.
Nitrogen.
The first element in the fourth period, which is used in making fertilizer, is potassium.
Phosphate fertilizer is a compound, not an element. The compound contains phosphorus.
This chemical element is potassium (K).
