16: In the Nitrogen cycle, the place where you would expect to find an abundance of ammonium oxidation is: a) areas with abundant nitrate b) areas that are anoxic c) water that has a significant proportion of N2 d) aerobic sediment and water
Homework Answers
Answer -- D---- Aerobic sediment and water
Ammonia is formed as an end product due to the degradation of organic matter( ammonification) and is further oxidized to nitrate again by nitrifying bacteria present in soil( nitrification) . This process is occured in oxic environment. The oxidation of Ammonium ions to nitrite and subsequent oxidation of nitrite to nitrate is called nitrification.
NH3 + O2 + 2e- -------> NH2OH + H2O
NH2OH+ H2O ---------> NO2- + 5H+ + 4e-
