    Question: For which of the following fertilizers, sulphuric acid is being used in large amounts?

    Options:

    Organic fertilizers
    Phosphate fertilizers
    Potassium fertilizers
    Nitrogen fertilizers

    🔑Key Points:
    -For Phosphate fertilizers, sulphuric acid is being used in a large amount.
    -By far the largest amount of sulfuric acid is used to make phosphoric acid, used, in turn, to make the phosphate fertilizers, calcium dihydrogen phosphate, and ammonium phosphates.
    -It is also used to make ammonium sulfate, which is a particularly important fertilizer in sulfur-deficient.

    🔴Additional Information:
    -Examples of naturally occurring organic fertilizers include manure, slurry, worm castings, peat, seaweed, and guano. 
    -Fertilizers that are high in potassium include burned cucumber skins, sulfate of potash magnesia, Illite clay, kelp, wood ash, etc.
    -The nitrogenous fertilizer industry includes the production of synthetic ammonia, nitric acid, ammonium nitrate, and urea.
