Nitrogen the gas which is about 3/4 of the atmosphere consists of molecules. Each of these molecules consists of two atoms of nitrogen that are chemically bonded together. We don't refer to nitrogen gas as a compound because, by definition, a compound must be two or more different elements chemically bonded together.

When joining with atoms to form a covalent compound the nitrogen atom can form what?
A molecule.
What molecule compound contains 1 nitrogen atom for every 2 oxygen atoms?
Nitrogen dioxide, which has the formula NO2.
When nitrogen and hydrogen combine what will be the ratio of hydrogen atoms to nitrogen atoms in a molecule resulting compound?
There will be three hydrogen atoms per nitrogen atom, forming the compound ammonia with formula NH3.
Is NO an ionic compound?
No, Nitrogen(IV) Oxide is a covalent compound which is a gas at room temperature.
Is nh3 an element compound or mixture?
No, NH3 is not an element. To be an element, a substance must have all the same type of atom. This is a chemical compound, made of two types of elements: Nitrogen and Hydrogen. In one molecule of this compound there are 4 atoms: 1 Nitrogen atom and three Hydrogen atoms.
When joining with atoms to form a covalent compound the nitrogen atom can form what?
A molecule.
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.
What molecule compound contains 1 nitrogen atom for every 2 oxygen atoms?
Nitrogen dioxide, which has the formula NO2.
Is nitrogen a compound or molecule?
Nitrogen is an element that is usually found alone as the N2 molecule. It is not a compound.
Is nitrogen a molecule and why?
No because it is a single atom, like oxygen. A molecule/compound is more than one atom connected together like water.
How is a nitrogen atom different from a nitrogen molecule?
A single nitrogen atom can be chemically reactive while a nitrogen molecule is relatively stable and tends to be faf more inert. A nitrogen molecule also has twice the mass of a nitrogen atom.
When nitrogen and hydrogen combine what will be the ratio of hydrogen atoms to nitrogen atoms in a molecule resulting compound?
There will be three hydrogen atoms per nitrogen atom, forming the compound ammonia with formula NH3.
Is NO an ionic compound?
No, Nitrogen(IV) Oxide is a covalent compound which is a gas at room temperature.
What molecule of a compound contains 1 nitrogen atom for every 2 oxygen atoms?
The chemical formula N2O is for the nitrous oxide (nitrogen(I) oxide).
Is nh3 an element compound or mixture?
No, NH3 is not an element. To be an element, a substance must have all the same type of atom. This is a chemical compound, made of two types of elements: Nitrogen and Hydrogen. In one molecule of this compound there are 4 atoms: 1 Nitrogen atom and three Hydrogen atoms.
Is nitrogen gas atom or molecule?
pussyboi; atom
How is the molecular formula NO different from the molecular formula N2O?
A single nitrogen atom can be chemically reactive while a nitrogen molecule is relatively stable and tends to be faf more inert. A nitrogen molecule also has twice the mass of a nitrogen atom.
