Yes, indirectly, but not as a separate element. Hydrogen is used in the Haber process to manufacture ammonia. This is then used directly as a fertilizer or used to create other ammonia based compounds e.g ammonium salts for use as fertilizer.

Nitrogen from the air can react with what element to make ammonia for fertilizer?

Hydrogen. Nitrogen from the air can react with hydrogen to produce ammonia for fertilizer in the Haber-Bosch process.


What is the primary industrial use of hydrogen?

There are two primary uses for hydrogen today. About half is used to produce ammonia (NH3) via the Haber process, which is then used directly or indirectly as fertilizer. Because both the world population and the intensive agriculture used to support it are growing, ammonia demand is growing. The other half of current hydrogen production is used to convert heavy petroleum sources into lighter fractions suitable for use as fuels. This latter process is known as hydrocracking. Hydrocracking represents an even larger growth area, since rising oil prices encourage oil companies to extract poorer source material, such as tar sands and oil shale. The scale economies inherent in large scale oil refining and fertilizer manufacture make possible on-site production and "captive" use. Smaller quantities of "merchant" hydrogen are manufactured and delivered to end users as well


Ammonium hydrogen phosphite?

Ammonium hydrogen phosphite is a chemical compound with the formula NH4H2PO3. It is used as a fertilizer and a fungicide in agriculture. It is a white solid that is soluble in water and has low toxicity.


Iron III hydrogen phosphate?

Iron III hydrogen phosphate is a chemical compound with the formula FePO4. It is a white solid that is insoluble in water. It is commonly used in research and as a fertilizer.


Iron II hydrogen phosphate?

Iron(II) hydrogen phosphate is a chemical compound with the formula Fe(H2PO4)2. It is a white solid that is often used as a fertilizer in agriculture due to its high phosphorus content and the ability of plants to absorb iron from it. Iron(II) hydrogen phosphate can also be used in industrial applications such as water treatment processes.
