    Urea is highly soluble in water. When it is allowed to dissolve in water in the presence of heat, it will yield ammonia and carbon dioxide. The reaction is shown below:

    NH2-CO-NH2 + H2O ⇒ 2 NH3 + CO2

    As you can observe in the stoichiometric equations, 1 molecule of water can dissolve with 1 mole of urea.
