Dissociated ammonia

Since 1973, progress has been made in all the fields reviewed and a more complete review of Franck s work has appeared (29). For the present purposes it is necessary to concentrate on the two areas which are least well studied simple electrolytes between 300 C and the critical point and the chemistry of aqueous transition metal cations. A number of studies which do not fall into these categories must, however, be mentioned because of their direct relevance to boiler water chemistry. These are studies of sodium phosphate phase equilibria (30), ammonia dissociation (31) and isopiestic studies of calcium and magnesium chlorides (32). 

A weak base, such as aqueous ammonia, dissociates very little. Therefore, the equilibrium lies to the left. 

Ruff and Geisel 3 assume that the compound of nitrogen sulphide with ammonia dissociates in anhydrous ammonia solution forming (A), N S NHa, and (b), S S(NH)a, of which the former yields an insoluble mercuric salt, N S NHg, and the latter an insoluble lead salt,... 

Moffat and Neeleman (139) investigated the adsorption of ammonia on boron phosphate by means of infrared spectroscopy. Ammonia appear to dissociate on this solid. Although absorption bands arising from NH4+ and coordinated ammonia were obtained, the authors feel that the presence of NH + does not necessarily indicate that Br0nsted sites were initially present on the BP04 surface. Hydroxyl groups that might be formed when ammonia dissociates could react with dry ammonia to form NHi+. 

Several processes are available for the production of the additional hydrogen that is necessary for the various heavy feedstock hydroprocessing sequences that have been outlined elsewhere (Chapters 7 and 9), and it is the purpose of the present section to present a general description of these processes. In general, most of the external hydrogen is manufactured by steam-methane reforming or by oxidation processes. Other processes such as ammonia dissociation, steam-... 

Similar considerations can be applied to bases. Ammonium hydroxide (i.e. the aqueous solution of ammonia) dissociates according to the equation ... 

Beginning NH3 and a very small amount of NH4 and OH are present. As a weak base, ammonia dissociates very little. 

Figure 13.37 is a material flow sheet for a dual-temperature ammonia-hydrogen exchange plant using the same amount of synthesis-gas feed and producing the same amount of enriched ammonia product as the monothermal ammonia-hydrogen exchange plant of Fig. 13.23. Comparison of these figures shows that the hot exchange column of Fig. 13.37 performs both the function of the ammonia dissociation step D of Fig. 13.23 in providing enriched...

The ammonia dissociation reaction as a closed-cycle liquid hydride energy storage system has been investigated primarily by Australian researchers in connection with solar primary energy [7] ...

Elementary processes (5-164)-(5-170) are responsible for the formation of primary ammonia dissociation products NH2, NH, and H. The formation of molecular hydrogen and nitrogen, which are major stable products of ammonia dissociation (5-163), proceeds according to Slovetsky (1980) in the following fast exothermic reactions ...
