A jet of nitrogen plasma blown into a sodium carbonate solution produced reductive fixation of carbonate to formate. The reaction is explained by the nitrogen-mediated oxidation-reduction of water.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
