When the water is a liquid what is the physical state of nitrogen?

At normal atmospheric pressure, nitrogen is gaseous over the entire liquid range of water (and considerably below as well; the boiling point of nitrogen is about 77 K).


When water is a liquid what is the physical state of nitrogen?

When water is a liquid, nitrogen is in a gaseous state. Nitrogen has a boiling point of -196°C, much lower than the freezing point of water, so it will be gaseous at room temperature when water is in a liquid state.


How is nitrogen depleted from soil?

Nitrogen can be depleted from soil through plant uptake, leaching, and runoff. Plant roots absorb nitrogen from the soil to support growth, which can lead to a decrease in soil nitrogen levels over time. Additionally, excess water can cause nitrogen to leach out of the soil and into groundwater, or runoff can transport nitrogen into bodies of water, further depleting soil nitrogen.


Cure for too much nitrogen in soil?

Nitrogen is water soluble, the easiest way to do that is to water the plants with straight water for a few times, especially if you are using nutrients. If you are growing outdoors, then flood the plants twice. Over water them a couple of times, and the N should work itself out.


Are nitrogen and water elements?

Nitrogen, yes. Water, no. Water is a compound of the elements oxygen and hydrogen.


What is the reaction of nitrogen dioxide with water?

When nitrogen dioxide reacts with water, it forms nitric acid and nitrogen monoxide.


Is water vapor nitrogen?

No, water vapor is not nitrogen. Water vapor is the gaseous form of water, while nitrogen is a separate element that is found in the atmosphere as a gas. Water vapor is a result of the evaporation of liquid water, while nitrogen is a naturally occurring element in the air we breathe.


A sample of nitrogen gas is collected over water at 20 degrees Celsius. The vapor pressure of water at 20 degrees Celsius is 18 mmHg. What is the partial pressure of the nitrogen if the total pressure?

The total pressure is the sum of the partial pressure of nitrogen and the vapor pressure of water. Therefore, the partial pressure of nitrogen is the total pressure minus the vapor pressure of water. Given that the total pressure is not provided in the question, we need more information to calculate the partial pressure of nitrogen.


Why is nitrogen denser than water?

Wrong, nitrogen is less dense than water!

What will happen if ammonia is passed over heated litharge?

Can you conclude that hydrogen and nitrogen dissolve in water?

Yes, hydrogen and nitrogen can dissolve in water. Hydrogen is sparingly soluble in water, while nitrogen is relatively insoluble in water.
