Answer is: Friedrich Wohler was working with ammonium cyanate & found crystals of urea in his breakers.

Urea is an organic compound with chemical formula CO(NH₂)₂

Friedrich Wohler's discovered in 1828 that urea can be produced from inorganic starting materials.

In human body, the source of these two nitrogen atoms are ammonia (NH₃) from nitrogen compounds (mostly metabolism of amino acids) through which excess nitrogen is eliminated from organisms.

This process is called urea cycle, which extracted nitrogenous wastes. The liver forms it by combining two ammonia molecules with a carbon dioxide molecule.

Carmel forms when table sugar c12h22o11, reacts with oxygen. what elements make up carmel
Natasha_Volkova [10]
The reaction of sugar with oxygen is as follows:

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + 12 O₂ → 12 CO₂ + 11 H₂O

When in the presence of pure oxygen, sucrose (table sugar) will not form caramel, in fact it will combust into carbon dioxide and water like any other carbohydrate.

Caramel is actually formed by slowly heating sucrose to high temperatures of around 170 °C resulting in thermal decomposition. This essentially removes molecules of water from the sucrose which results in the compound isomerizing and eventually polymerizing to form caramel. The chemical make up of caramel is the same as sucrose, so it will still be composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
