Definitions and meanings of "Ammonia"

What do we mean by ammonia?

A colorless, pungent gas, NH3, extensively used to manufacture fertilizers and a wide variety of nitrogen-containing organic and inorganic chemicals. noun

The great value of ammonia as a fertilizer, chiefly in the form of ammonium sulphate, renders the question of its supply on a large scale one of much importance. Until recent years it was obtained mainly from the watery ammoniacal liquor which is a by-product of the manufacture of coal-gas for illuminating purposes. This source of supply has been seriously threatened by the extension, especially in the United States, of the use of carbureted water-gas, in making which little or no ammonia is obtained. Notable improvements, however, have been made in methods for the recovery of ammonia from the waste gases of coke-ovens, shale-works, and blast-furnaces, and very considerable amounts are now obtained from these previously neglected sources. One of the most interesting results secured with the aid of the high temperature of the modern electric furnace is the synthetical production of ammonia from the nitrogen of atmospheric air and the hydrogen of water. Carbon in the form of coke is mixed with lime and the mixture intensely heated in the presence of atmospheric nitrogen, giving rise to carbon-monoxid gas and calcium cyanamide (CaCN2). The latter, heated with water under pressure, yields calcium carbonate and ammonia (CaCN2 + 3H2O = CaCO3 + 2N H3). It appears that cyanamide itself may serve, when used directly as a fertilizer, to furnish assimilable nitrogen to growing plants. noun

The modern name of the volatile alkali, NH3, formerly so called to distinguish it from the more fixed alkalis. noun

Definition : Ammonia 880 is a saturated solution of ammonia gas in water. Composition : ammonium hydroxide 28% (w/w as ammonia). Density : 0.880 g/cm³ Uses : chiefly used in the manufacture of laboratory reagents and commercial chemicals. Reason why it is called '880 ammonia' : The aqueous solution of ammonia is basic. The maximum concentration of ammonia in water (a saturated solution) has a density of 0.880 g/cm³, and is often known as '880 ammonia'. More information: Due to its potentially hazardous nature, it is not sold online. Urban Dictionary

Basically it's urine. Pee looks like apple juice and contains ammonia. Henceforth Ammonia Apple Juice. Urban Dictionary
