Ammonia- Vehicle fuel breakthrough
Summary: https://scienceblog.com/542820/resea...ransportation/
Challenge: Efficiently burning ammonia in engines for clean transportation. Solution: Researchers identified optimal intake port opening conditions that create swirling airflow in the engine cylinder. Benefit: Swirling airflow improves air-fuel mixing, leading to: More efficient combustion Reduced emissions Advantages of Ammonia over Electric Vehicles: Easier storage and transportation Lower manufacturing carbon footprint of engines Potential of Ammonia: Reduce carbon dioxide emissions Contributes to a hydrogen energy society Provides a solution to potential lithium shortages

Nh3 / nh4
NH3 and NH4 represent two related but distinct chemical species:
1. NH3 - Ammonia Chemical Formula: NH3 Description: Ammonia is a colorless gas with a strong, pungent odor. It's commonly known as household ammonia when diluted in water. Properties: Soluble in water Weak base Toxic at high concentrations 2. NH4 - Ammonium Ion Chemical Formula: NH4+ Description: The ammonium ion is a positively charged polyatomic ion. It doesn't exist freely but forms when ammonia (NH3) reacts with an acid (gains a proton). Properties: Found in many salts like ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) Weak acid (opposite of ammonia) Generally non-toxic (unlike ammonia gas)
