Chemistry Facts 0.1

By Ryan Martin -
In the year of 1910, two German chemists Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch changed the world of agriculture with their simple ageless invention. All they did was combining atmospheric nitrogen which plays a critical role in the biochemistry of every living thing, with hydrogen to form ammonia. Although nitrogen is the most common gas in our atmosphere, but it doesn’t like reacting with very much, which means that plants can’t extract it directly from the air. Consequently, a major limiting factor in agriculture has been the availability of nitrogen.

From the Haber-Bosch process nitrogen can be extracted from atmosphere by means of ammonia which in turn can be used as fertilizers in agriculture. This invention by the German duo is so important that till today about 80% of the nitrogen in our bodies comes from the Haber-Bosch process.
The world of chemistry is full of such known and unknown facts. To explore the emerging entities in the world of chemistry, I hope to see you in the upcoming Chemistry Congress 2018.

Hope everyone remembers this character from Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Yes! I’m talking about the liquid metal advanced shapeshifting prototypical Terminator, the T-1000. Robert Patrick bleed his acting brilliance in this brutal evil character. But but but…… Spoiler Alert!! In the following content we are not going to talk about any upcoming Terminator Series movies or Arnold Schwarzenegger either. What we are going to talk is chemistry, pure chemistry.  Now! Let me explain why I just dropped the terminator in front, it’s because of the liquid metal and the only liquid metal that available to human beings is as toxic as the evil character in that movie. Yes! As you all know mercury is that sole liquid metal on earth in normal temperature and 13.6 times heavier than same volume of water.                             gif source:gifer.com Long back in 2000 BC people in India and china discovered this metal. The use of mercury in the ancient civiliz
