What are the two compounds that are formed when nitrogen combines with oxygen?
Nitric and nitrous oxides. (N0 and N2O)
What do you call acid formed with nitrogen that has two oxygen atoms?
The acid with the chemical formula HNO2 is nitrous acid. HNO3 is nitric acid.
What is the pollutant formed from nitrogen?
Nitrogen Oxide is formed from Nitrogen when it is mixed with Oxygen. The word equation for the formation of this pollutant is N2 + O2 ----> 2NO (Nitrogen + Oxygen -----> Nitrogen Oxide)
How is nitrogen dioxide formed in a car?
Nitrogen dioxide is formed as a product of combustion; oxidation (reaction with oxygen) of organic compounds from fuel containing nitrogen.
How are nitrogen oxygen and argon formed?
Nitrogen and oxygen are formed primarily by thermonuclear fusion in stars. Argon is formed by radioactive decay of potassium - which is also formed in stars.
What do you call the acid formed with nitrogen that has two oxygen atoms?
Nitrous acid
Name of anion formed from nitrogen?
The acid with the formula HNO2 is nitrous acid.
What is the acid formed by nitrogen oxides mixes?
Usually a mixture of nitrous and nitric acid.

What is nitrous oxide used for?
Nitrous Oxide has many useful purposes. It can also be abused like any other inhalant drug. First and foremost, it is used as a propellant in aerosol sprays (Hair Spray, Whipped Cream... etc). Secondly, it is used as a performance enhancer in racing vehicles. Finally, it is used by Dentists to relax and sedate patients while they are performing various procedures.
How many bonds can be formed by nitrogen?
3 covalent bonds can be formed by Nitrogen
What are harmful effects of nitrogen oxides?
Nitrogen Oxides are reactive. General name NOx refer to NO and NO2. They react and cause respiratory system damage.Example reaction of NO2 is as follow.2 NO2 + H2O → HNO2 + HNO3Nitric acid and nitrous acid are formed with presence of moisture in air and in the lungs. This is highly corrosive to the pulmonary system in the body.
How is nitrogen oxide formed from burning petrol?
Nitrogen is formed by giving off petrol
What is the pollutant formed from nitrogen?
Nitrogen Oxide is formed from Nitrogen when it is mixed with Oxygen. The word equation for the formation of this pollutant is N2 + O2 ----> 2NO (Nitrogen + Oxygen -----> Nitrogen Oxide)
Does nitrogen have an effect on the envirom ent?
Excess presence of nitrogen effects Water and Air quality, which is a great concern to the environment.Nitrogen in the soil converted to nitrate(No3) and it is highly mobile,so easily moved with water to effect groundwater and surface water. Two important nitrogen oxide No and NO2 commonly grouped as NOx. NOx is formed when fuel is burn at high temperature and plays an important role in the formation of ground level ozone, acid rain and particulate matter.Another nitrogen oxide, nitrous oxide (N2O), is a greenhouse gas and one of the causes for global warming. Other impacts of nitrogen on environment are eutrophication of surface water, toxic algae blooms,hypoxia,nitrogen saturation in forests etc.
