  Ammonium sulfate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ammonium sulfate, (NH, sometimes known as Mohrs Salt, is a chemical compound commonly used as a fertilizer.
Ammonium sulfate is quite acidic and will lower the pH balance of the soil as well as other sulfate compounds such as aluminium sulfate.
Ammonium sulfate is prepared commercially from the ammoniacal liquor of gas-works and is purified by recrystallization.

 Ammonium sulfide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ammonium sulfide, (NH S, is obtained, in the form of micaceous crystals, by passing hydrogen sulfide mixed with a slight excess of ammonia through a well-cooled vessel; the hydrosulfide NH ·HS is formed at the same time.
The common "stink bomb" consists of a solution of ammonium sulfide in water, sealed inside a glass ampoule.
When the glass is broken, ammonia and hydrogen sulfide gases, both of which have a powerful unpleasant smell, are released from the solution.

It is clear that the brine is evaporated and that the ammonium sulfate is reacted with the brine to produce sodium sulfate inter alia.
conversion of sodium sulfate and ammonium bicarbonate to ammonium sulfate and sodium bicarbonate in a commercially viable manner.
This precipitation is accomplished by the addition of carbon dioxide and ammonia gas or solid ammonium bicarbonate together with combined salt (ammonium bicarbonate and Glauber's salt derived from a further unit operation discussed hereinafter) in the correct combination to achieve the previously discussed optimal ammonium to sodium ratio.

 Ammonium sulfate fractionation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
In practice, ammonium sulfate is the salt commonly used since it is highly water-soluble, relatively cheap and available at high purity.
An ammonium sulfate concentration is chosen which will precipitate the maximum proportion of undesired protein whilst leaving most of the enzyme still in solution.
This precipitated protein is removed by centrifugation and then the ammonium sulfate concentration of the remaining solution is increased to a value that will precipitate most of the enzyme whilst leaving the maximum amount of residual protein contaminants still in solution.

 Barium sulfate
Barium sulfate has such a low solubility in water that it is undetectable in solution without the use of elaborate equipment or methods.
If two soluble ionic compounds, such as barium chloride and ammonium sulfate, are mixed, the ions rearrange to form a precipitate of barium sulfate, leaving ammonium and chloride ions in solution.
Dissolving a small amount of each leftover solid as testing reagents, ammonium sulfate solution added to a sample of the residual solution will show a white precipitate with excess barium, or barium chloride solution added to the residual will show a white precipitate with excess sulfate.

 Ammoium Sulfate Precipitation
Of these salts, ammonium sulfate has been the most widely used chemical because it has high solubility and is relatively inexpensive.
Then a series of cold (near 0ºC) ammonium sulfate solutions of decreasing concentrations are employed to extract selectively the protein components that are the most soluble at higher ammonium sulfate concentrations.
From the volume of the saturated ammonium sulfate added to the protein solution at the onset of precipitation, calculate the salt concentration in terms of percent saturation.

 EPA: Federal Register:Ammonia; Ammonium Sulfate (Solution); Ammonium Nitrate (Solution); Water Dissociable Ammonium ...
EPA also preliminarily concluded that the ecotoxicity concerns for ammonium sulfate (solution) were limited to the aqueous ammonia (i.e., total ammonia) present in these solutions and that the sulfate portion was not of concern.
An aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate is environmentally equivalent to aqueous ammonia generated from anhydrous ammonia because when each of these solutions is released to receiving waters the amount of un-ionized ammonia present is dependent upon environmental conditions.
In fact, ammonium sulfate is one of the many ammonium salts used by researchers as a source of aqueous ammonia for aquatic toxicity studies.

 Making Double Salts
Both double salts have lower solubilities in water than any of the single salts that might be used in the preparation, or of ammonium chloride, NH Cl, or ammonium nitrate, NH that may be formed in the solution.
For conversion to ammonium cobalt(II) sulfate, two moles of sulfate are required for every mole of cobalt, so 0.017 mol of ammonium sulfate are required, or 2.3 g.
Ammonium nitrate is extremely soluble in water, so is unlikely to be a significant contaminant of the product if crystallisation is allowed to proceed at a moderate rate.

 Precipitating Protein with Ammonium Sulfate
Different egg white proteins are precipitated, depending on the amount of ammonium sulfate added to the mixture.
Ammonium sulfate is highly solvated and reduces the amount of water available for interaction with the protein.
Increasing the ammonium sulfate concentration decreases the amount of water around the proteins, causing them to precipitate.

Bougainvilleas fertilized with ammonium sulfate had an average of 47.9 flowers/plant vs. 4.4 for those receiving sodium nitrate (Table 1).
The positive effects of ammonium sulfate fertilization are believed to be due to the NH4+ ion, rather than SO4=, since all plants received adequate amounts of SO4= in the form of K2SO4.
Substrate nitrate concentrations were equivalent for containers fertilized with soluble ammonium and nitrate fertilizers, suggesting that nitrification of ammonium was occurring during this study.

 Ammonium Sulfate Fraction of Protein Mixtures   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
When a lot of salt, such as ammonium sulfate, is added to the protein solution, the salt ions attract the water molecules away from the protein.
Salting out or ammonium sulfate precipitation is useful for concentrating dilute solutions of proteins.
The end result is that you are also able to increase the purity of your protein of interest while you concentrate it using an ammonium sulfate fractionation procedure.

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, aka Ammonium Dodecyl sulfate, is simply a cheaper form of sodium Dodecyl sulfate, and has essentially equivalent properties.
The laury sulfates, ammonium or sodium, are the primary ingredients in most shampoos, and notably are used as a known "positive" in the Draise eye irritation tests.
The lauryl sulfates are used because they are very high foam, but not nearly as effective a cleaner, thus will not "de-oil" the hair, as would the more common Dodecyl benzene sulfonates found in most US hand dishwashing compounds.

 Aerosol Type-Equations
If it is further assumed that the sulfate is fully neutralized ammonium sulfate, the organic carbon concentration can be estimated by subtracting the hydrogen from sulfate and multiplying the difference by a constant representing the fraction of hydrogen:
OCH = 11*(H-0.24*S) The sulfur factor, H/S ratio, for ammonium sulfate is 8/32 = 0.25.
The OCH calculation is invalid when (1) there is high nitrate relative to sulfate, as at sites near Los Angeles and San Francisco, and (2) the sulfur is not present as ammonium sulfate.
