TRANSPORT OF WATER AND MINERAL SALTS INTO THE LEAVES OF A FLOWERING PLANT
Water and mineral salts are transported into the leaves of a flowering plant through a process called transpiration. Transpiration is the loss of water vapor from the plant’s aerial parts, primarily through the stomata on the leaves. This process relies…
AMMONIUM SALTS
Ammonium salts are prepared by dissolving ammonia in the appropriate acid or neutralising aqueous ammonia with the appropriate acid. The ammonium salts are then separated out of the solution by crystallisation and not by evaporation because they are heat-liable. e.g.…
