What Is Ammonium Nitrate Used For?
Dissolving ammonium nitrate in water absorbs heat, so a thermometer in the beaker shows a clear temperature fall; the same effect explains instant cold packs and gives students data for enthalpy-of-solution calculations. Because the salt is very soluble, it is also used to plot solubility curves at different temperatures, and it provides both ammonium and nitrate ions for qualitative analysis.
In the ammonium test, the salt is warmed with sodium hydroxide solution and the ammonia released turns damp red litmus blue; nitrate can be confirmed by the brown ring test with iron(II) sulfate and concentrated sulfuric acid under teacher supervision. Ammonium nitrate is a strong oxidiser, so never heat it strongly or mix it with fuels, powdered metals or organic material, and keep it away from acids. It is a regulated substance in India and many other countries, so ask us about the paperwork that applies to your order.
Supplier

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ammonium Nitrate 200 g used for in the lab?
Ammonium Nitrate 200 g is used for endothermic dissolving and heat-of-solution experiments, solubility curve work, fertiliser chemistry lessons and qualitative tests for ammonium and nitrate ions in school and college laboratories.
Why does ammonium nitrate make water cold?
Ammonium nitrate makes water cold because dissolving it absorbs more energy than it releases, so heat is drawn from the water. Ammonium Nitrate 200 g therefore gives a clear, easily measured temperature drop for enthalpy-of-solution practicals.
Is Ammonium Nitrate 200 g hazardous?
Yes, Ammonium Nitrate 200 g is an oxidising solid that can intensify fires and may decompose dangerously if heated strongly or contaminated. Keep it away from fuels, metal powders, acids and heat, and follow the MSDS supplied with the pack.
How should Ammonium Nitrate 200 g be stored?
Store Ammonium Nitrate 200 g tightly closed in a cool, dry oxidiser cabinet, since the salt absorbs moisture and cakes. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Are there legal requirements for buying ammonium nitrate?
Ammonium nitrate is a regulated substance in India and several other countries, and the rules can differ by quantity and purpose. When you request Ammonium Nitrate 200 g, state your institution and intended use so that we can tell you what documentation is required.
Who supplies Ammonium Nitrate 200 g SCI-637/278?
Ammonium Nitrate 200 g SCI-637/278 is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, with its MSDS, to schools, colleges, laboratories and dealers in India and international markets.
