Can nitrogen rust?
No: Rusting occurs by the combination of ferrous metals with oxygen from air or water, and nitrogen can not form the same compounds as oxygen does.
Does pure oxygen and pure nitrogen have the same volume?
No. Oxygen and Nitrogen molecules are not the same size. China has a railroad that rides along at 20,000 feet in Tibet. They pump air into the cars. The cars have filters. Nitrogen gas leaves through the filters and oxygen remains in the railroad cars. By using simple pumps and filters they increase the amount of oxygen in the cars. If oxygen and nitrogen were the same size, it would not work.
Is air and oxygen are the same gas?
air has oxygen in it but also other gases, e.g. helium nitrogen.
What element is important to every living thing?
CHON (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen)
What mass of oxygen contain same number of molecule as 42g of nitrogen?
Both nitrogen and oxygen exist at standard temperature and pressure as diatomic molecules. Therefore, the relative masses of equal numbers of molecules of the substance will the same as the ratios of their atomic masses, which are 15.9994 for oxygen and 14.0067 for nitrogen. The mass of oxygen that contains the same number of molecules as 42 g of nitrogen is 42(15.9994/14.0067) or 48 g, to the justified number of significant digits.
Equal volumes of nitrogen and oxygen at the same temperature and pressure would?
If equal volumes of nitrogen and oxygen are at the same temperature and pressure, then both (the nitrogen and oxygen) will contain the same number of particles
In a nitrogen plant you get nitrogen by separating oxygen. Can you also recover oxygen simultaneously with nitrogen?
yes because if it is gathered, we will sstill have the same atmosphere
What do animals use nitrogen for?
The same reason humans do. People breath oxygen and nitrogen.
What gas diffuses at the same rate as nitrogen?
Oxygen
Can nitrogen rust?
No: Rusting occurs by the combination of ferrous metals with oxygen from air or water, and nitrogen can not form the same compounds as oxygen does.
What gases make up the thermosphere?
Oxygen-20%Nitrogen-80%Helium-1%

Can nitrogen rust things?
No: Rusting occurs by the combination of ferrous metals with oxygen from air or water, and nitrogen can not form the same compounds as oxygen does.
Is oxygen the good thing we breathe?
Air is mainly a mix of oxygen and nitrogen. Oxygen is the part your body uses- the good stuff.
What are the two main gases?
Hydrogen and Nitrogen. Or oxygen and carbon dioxide, or carbon monoxide.
What type of thing are oxygen nitrogen and carbon dioxide?
They are classified as gases at standard conditions. And by "thing," you mean matter.
Is air and oxygen are the same gas?
air has oxygen in it but also other gases, e.g. helium nitrogen.
