C₃H₉N has four isomers: propan-1-amine, propan-2-amine, ethylmethylamine, and trimethylamine. Only primary amines (propan-1-amine and propan-2-amine) react with HNO₂ to liberate N₂, so the number is 2.

Moles = 2.5/22.4 ≈ 0.1116 mol; molar mass = 5/0.1116 ≈ 44.8 g/mol. Assume NₓOᵧ: 14x + 16y = 44.8. Simplest ratio: N₂O (14×2 + 16 = 44); empirical formula = N₂O.

Reaction: N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃. Moles of H₂ = 3 mol. 3 mol H₂ need 1 mol N₂; actual N₂ = 1 / 0.6 ≈ 1.67 mol. Volume = 1.67 × 22.4 ≈ 37.41 L.

“Denitrification” for which process converts nitrate to nitrogen gas in the nitrogen cycle. This relationship follows from the ecological mechanism represented by the terms in the item, not merely from an association between their names. Ecosystem processes are constrained by energy conservation and by the cycling of matter. Energy enters mainly through primary production, is lost as metabolic heat at every transfer, and therefore cannot be recycled in the way that carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, or water can. The remaining alternatives—“Nitrification”, “Ammonification”, “Fixation”—refer to diff
