Default Off Subject Question

I tried posting it in Better Living Through Chemestry, but apparently they're to busy scrubbing nutmeg outta their bongs to answer my question. Which is about refining metal using sodium nitrate and urea: Where does the urea fit in?



I've already UTFSE, and go 'head (please) and throw it in the proper thread guys if not in Better Living or here.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!

That's a good question man. Only place I have ever seen urea used is in using it for fertilizers for the nitrogen content-part of the fertilzers composition.



Check this site here and it might help as it's search engine is strictly for chemicals and the A-Z data of each in question.

You'll see what I mean.
