Is nitrous oxide a element?
No, Nitrous oxide is not an element. Laughing gas, as it's more commonly known as, is a molecule, which is a combination of more than one element. This molecule consists of, 1 Oxygen and 2 Nitrogen atoms (both of which are elements).
Is nitrogen a compound or atom?
an atomAnswer:In the atmosphere nitrogen is present as a diatomic molecule. Two atoms of nirogen (the element) are always joined together into one molecule.
How many atoms in nitrogen molecule?
Nitrogen is an element. It is usually found as the molecule N2 not N. Therefore there are two atoms of nitrogen in this molecule.
How many atoms are in laughing gas?
Nitrous Oxide, or laughing gas, has a chemical composition of N2O. That means that for one molecule of Nitrous Oxide contains two atoms of Nitrogen and one atom of Oxygen. That makes three atoms for every single unit of Laughing Gas.
