SUMMARY

The chemical equation for the dissolution of ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) in water does not produce NO2H and HNO3 as suggested. Instead, ammonium nitrate dissolves in water, resulting in the dissociation into ammonium ions (NH4+) and nitrate ions (NO3-). This process is endothermic, absorbing heat from the surroundings. For accurate information on the calorimetry of ammonium nitrate, refer to the provided link.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of chemical equations
  • Knowledge of ionic compounds and their dissociation
  • Familiarity with endothermic and exothermic reactions
  • Access to chemical resources for verification
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the dissolution process of ionic compounds in water
  • Research the thermodynamics of endothermic reactions
  • Explore the properties and applications of ammonium nitrate
  • Learn about calorimetry and its relevance in chemical reactions
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, educators, and professionals interested in chemical reactions and thermodynamics, particularly those studying ionic compounds and their behavior in solutions.

If i added ammonium nitrate with water, what is the chemical equation?

is it
NH4NO3 + WATER = NO2H + HNO3
