Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (ADP), commonly called monoammonium phosphate (MAP) is a chemical compound with formula . It is a white crystalline solid consisting of ammonium cations and dihydrogen phosphate anions in equal proportions. ADP is a major ingredient of agricultural fertilizers and some fire extinguishers. It also has significant uses in optics and electronics. Monoammonium phosphate is soluble in water and crystallizes from it as the anhydrous salt in the tetragonal system, as elongated prisms or needles. It is practically insoluble in ethanol. Solid monoammonium phosphate can be considered stable in practice for temperatures up to 200
Iron(II) oxide Iron(II) oxide Iron(II) oxide or ferrous oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula FeO. Its mineral form is known as wüstite. One of several iron oxides, it is a black-colored powder that is sometimes confused with rust, the latter of which consists of hydrated iron(III) oxide (ferric oxide). Iron(II) oxide also refers to a family of related non-stoichiometric compounds, which are typically iron deficient with compositions ranging from FeO to FeO. FeO can be prepared by the thermal decomposition of iron(II) oxalate. The procedure is conducted under an inert atmosphere to avoid the formation of ferric oxide. A similar
