    Ammonia is a colorless gas with a pungent smell that is less dense than air. It is manufactured through the Haber process by combining nitrogen and hydrogen gases under high pressure and temperature. Ammonia has several important industrial uses, including in the production of fertilizers, synthetic fibers like nylon, explosives, and cleaning agents. It is also used to manufacture nitric acid and prevent the coagulation of latex.
