- Soil acidification due to use of phosphorus fertilizers is small compared to that attributed to nitrogen, due to the lower amounts of this nutrient used and the lower acidification per kg phosphorus. Phosphoric acid is the most acidifying phosphorus fertilizer. - Potassium fertilizers have little or no effect on soil pH.
The factors that change the reaction rates of chemical reactions are: 1)temperature 2)concentration 3)pressure 4)physical state 5)a catalyst.
Chemical Reactions (Also known as a Chemical Change). A chemical reactions occurs when two or more substances meet, and they react in a way the either causes a change in the original substances, or the creations of one or two entirely new substances. A commonly known example is when vinegar and baking soda are mixed together. Vinegar is an acid, and baking soda is a base.
