Frank ICSE Solutions for Class 10 Chemistry – Ammonia

PAGE NO : 204

Solution 1:

Ammonia is found both in free state and in combined state. In free state, it is formed in traces amount by decaying urine and other organic matter.

In combined state, ammonia is found as ammonium salts mainly as ammonium chloride and ammonium sulphate.

Solution 2:

  1. (i) Liquid ammonia – Compressed ammonia gas at 6 atmospheric pressure. Chemical formula -NH3
  2. (ii) Liquor ammonia – It is saturated solution of ammonia in water. It is very dilute solution of ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH).
  3. A saturated solution of ammonia in water is called liquor ammonia Fortis.

Solution 8:

  1. Liquid ammonia is used as refrigerant as:
    • It is highly volatile
    • It has high specific latent heat of vaporization. 1 mole (17g) of liquid ammonia vaporises by absorbing 5.7 kcals of heat from the surroundings, which is there by cooled.
    • It easily liquefies under pressure at room temperature.
  2. Ammonia emulsifies fats and grease. Thus it is used to clean oils, fats and body grease etc. from clothes.
  3. Liquid hydrogen is dangerous to transport as it is highly combustible. Thus, hydrogen is converted to liquid ammonia and transported in cylinders. Later it is catalytically converted to hydrogen.

  1. Low temperature
  2. High pressure
  3. Use of catalyst
