46
AnswerD.

Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
The nitrogen content (%) of urea fertilizer is 46.Urea, also known as carbamide, is an organic compound with chemical formula CO(NH2)2. This amide has two amino groups (-NH2) joined by a carbonyl functional group (–C(=O)–). It is thus the simplest amide of carbamic acid.
The agricultural industry widely uses urea, a white crystalline solid containing 46%, as an animal feed additive and fertilizer.
