In chemistry, the symbol "n" refers to the number of the principal energy level. The higher the value of "n", the higher the energy level.

What does gravitional energy mean?

It refers to potential energy (energy of position), related to the force of gravity. Basically, at a higher position, an object has more energy than at a lower position.


Why nitrogen diffuses faster in high temperature?

Higher temperatures mean more heat energy which translates into more kinetic energy of the molecules of nitrogen gas. This greater kinetic energy allows the molecules to diffuse faster than at a lower temperature and lower kinetic energy.

Why reactants having lower energy of activation move faster?

I dont understand what do you mean by "move", but I know that a chemical reaction can occure easily when energy of products (Ep) is lower than that of reactants (Er). The activation energy is the absolute value of AE=Ep-Er

How does the outlier effect the mean median and mode in a set of data?

There would be a difference to the median. The old number wouldn't be the median but the mode wouldn't change. If the outlier is a high value, it will cause the mean value to shift to the higher side, while a low valued outlier will drop the mean value to a lower number.
