<h3>Why is Hydroxide added ?</h3>

In the polymerization reaction, the lone pair electrons on the NH₂ groups of hexanediamine attack the C=O groups of the dicarboxylic acid in a nucleophilic substitution reaction as shown in the image.

Hydroxide is added to remove any H⁺ ions present and keep the hexanediamine in the deprotonated form, so that the NH₂ lone pair electrons are available for reaction.

<h3 /><h3>What if you don't add it ?</h3>

If hydroxide is not added, the NH₂ groups will get protonated by H⁺  ions present to give NH₃⁺ groups, which cannot react.

Explanation:

Fertilizers are chemically synthesized plant nutrients.

Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) are macronutrients and are required in large amounts by plants. So, farmers use fertilizers in order to supply these nutrients. NPK 15:15:15 , NPK 20:20:20, NPK 15:30:15 are examples of fertilizers used to supply N, P, K to crops.
