Nitrogen is more in the atmosphere. Around 78% of the atmosphere is nitrogen gas and 21% is oxygen gas.
What is more abundant in the atmosphere oxygen or Nitrogen?
Nitrogen
Which is more volatile nitrogen oxygen or argon?
Nitrogen is more volatile as it has a lower boiling point, then argon and then oxygen.
What gas is more abundant nitrogen or oxygen?
In the atmosphere, Nitrogen is about four times as common as is Oxygen.
Why do you need more nitrogen than oxygen?
Nitrogen is an inert gas it maintains a proper ratio of oxygen requred by living organisms if oxygen is in higher ratio the respiratory organs become oxidized and more oxygen in blood is harmful as low concentration of oxygen.
Does the atmosphere have more nitrogen or oxygen in it?

How many Time more nitrogen than oxygen make up air?
There is: Nitrogen (N2): 78.09% Oxygen (O2): 20.95% in the atmosphere There is ~3.73 times more oxygen than nitrogen in the air and is in a ratio (oxygen to nitrogen) of 39:10 (rounded).
Why did god made nitrogen more abundant than oxygen?
oxygen is used by human and animals for respiration but nitrogen do not. for consuming nitrogen plants need nitrogen fixation thus occurs on low scale on other hand oxygen is directly used so its cunsumbtion is more then nitrogen. another important point is that oxygen is used in burning, formation of water etc thus means ratio of cunsumbtion of oxygen is more then nitrogen ,if there was more oxygen then it would lead to a blast every time there was a spark
Is nitrogen more reactive than oxygen?
No, oxygen is the more reactive element!
Will nitrogen and oxygen be identical?
No. Nitrogen is triply bonded, and is much more stable at "standard" temperatures than the more electronegative oxygen is.
What is the most abundant of nitrogen and oxygen?
Nitrogen is more abundant; our atmosphere is 78% Nitrogen.
What is composition of clean air?
Approximately 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen I thing more accurately it is more like 20.5% oxygen, and the rest is nitrogen and other gasses. Carbon dioxide only makes up around 0.03% of the air
