Answer: Option B
Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
CAN is calcium ammonium nitrate, also known as nitro-limestone or nitrochalk, and is a widely used inorganic fertilizer. It contains about 25% of nitrogen.Anhydrous ammonia is an efficient and widely used source of nitrogen fertilizer and its nitrogen content is 82%.
Urea is the most important nitrogenous fertilizer in the country because of its high N content and which is 46%.
Ammonium nitrate is a commonly used nitrogenous fertilizer and its nitrogen content is 33%.
