- 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.
Synthesis Reactions. The general form of a synthesis reaction is A + B â AB. Synthesis reactions put things together. Because of the very high reactivities of sodium metal and chlorine gas, this reaction releases a tremendous amount of heat and light energy.
