Ammonia is used as a refrigerating gas because it has excellent thermodynamic properties, such as a high latent heat of vaporization and good heat transfer capabilities. It is also energy efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly compared to other refrigerants.

How is ammonia gas collected in the laboratory preparation of ammonia gas?

Why ammonia can't be collected over water?

Ammonia is highly soluble in water and will readily dissolve in it. This can lead to inaccuracies in the collection process, as the ammonia gas will be quickly absorbed by the water, affecting the volume and concentration of the collected gas. To accurately collect ammonia, it is best to use a technique such as downward displacement of air or a gas syringe.
