It is zero since it is a free element and it does not react with anything
zero for each nitrogen
Nitrogen has an oxidation number of -3. Since it is in group 15, it has 5 valence electrons. It wants to have eight, so it will gain three electrons. Electrons are negative, that's why the oxidation number is negative.
nitrogen is a gas (N2)
The oxidation state (or number) is zero. This is true for any element in any of its allotropic elemental forms.
0 in N2

Just one...... Nitrogen: N2
Nitrogen has an oxidation number of -3. Since it is in group 15, it has 5 valence electrons. It wants to have eight, so it will gain three electrons. Electrons are negative, that's why the oxidation number is negative.

0 in N2
0 in N2
the oxidation number of nitrogen is 5
1 mole N2 = 22.4L 3.2L N2 x 1mol N2/22.4L = 0.14 mole N2

Nitrogen (N2) consists of two Nitrogen atoms.
