What's the difference between superphosphate and triple
super phosphate fertilizer?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / paul christy
Superphosphate, 0-20-0, is made when rock phosphate is
treated with sulfuric acid to make calcium phosphate
(0-20-0) and calcium sulphate (gypsum.) Triple
Superphosphate, 0-46-0, is made by treating rock phosphate
with phosphoric acid. Triple Superphosphate has a much
higher phosphate content, as indicated by the 0-46-0
indicating 46% phosphate content. The benefit of the Triple
is that less needs to be used. However it costs more and
there is some evidence to suggest it ties up available
micronutrients (zinc, manganese, iron)in the soil requiring
the grower to supplement them.

Answer / vishesh velani
The single super phosphate is treated with the sulfuric acid to form the calcium phosphate and the triple super phosphate is treated with the H3PO4 to make the phosphuric acid .

Answer / mithlesh kumar
superphosphate is made by the sulpuric acid and the super
phosphate is made of phosphoric acid.Also the single super
phosphate have the high phosphoric content as compare to
the supephosphate

ENGINEERING PHYSICS - EXAMPLE 30.4 : (a) Time evolution in Heisenberg picture, according to Ehrenfest theorem is m (d / dt) < r > = < p >, where m = mass, r = position, p = momentum of a particle. If v = velocity, prove that m < v > = < p >. (b) Lande g-factor is given by Gj = Gl [ J (J + 1) - S (S + 1) + L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] + Gs [ J (J + 1) + S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ]. If Gl = 1 and under approximation of Gs = 2, prove by calculation that Gj = (3/2) + [ S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ].
ENGINEERING ECONOMY - EXAMPLE 7.1 : In engineering economy, the future value of first year is FV = PV (1 + i). For second year it is FV = PV (1 + i) (1 + i). For third year it is FV = PV (1 + i) (1 + i)(1 + i) where FV = future value, PV = present value, i = interest rate per period, n = the number of compounding periods. By induction, what is the future value of $1000 for 5 years at the interest rate of 6 %?
