    Question: Soil colloidal particles show the phenomena? (IFFCO 2022)

    Options:

    Urea
    Anhydrous ammonia
    Sodium nitrate
    Ammonium sulphate

    ✅Explanation:
    Urea has the highest nitrogen content among commonly used nitrogen fertilizers. It contains approximately 46% nitrogen by weight. This makes it a highly efficient and cost-effective source of nitrogen for plants.

    📌 Other Options Explanations:
    -Anhydrous ammonia: Contains around 82% nitrogen, the highest among nitrogen fertilizers. However, it's a gas and requires specialized equipment for storage and application, making it less practical for many farmers.
    -Sodium nitrate: Contains approximately 16% nitrogen.
    -Ammonium sulphate: Contains approximately 21% nitrogen. It also provides sulfur, which can be beneficial for some crops.

    🔑Key Points:
    -Urea is also known as Carbamide and its chemical formula is CO(NH2)2.
    -Other names of Urea are-
    -Carbamide
    -Carbonyldiamide
    -Diaminomethanone.
    -Urea is the most important nitrogenous fertilizer in the country because of its high N content (46%N).
    -Urea is neutral in pH and can adapt to almost all kinds of soils.
    -The main function of Urea fertilizer is to provide the plants with nitrogen to promote green leafy growth.
