Why nitrogen is sparingly soluble in water?
Nitrogen is sparingly soluble in water because it is nonpolar and does not form strong interactions with water molecules due to its molecular structure. Additionally, nitrogen gas is less reactive compared to other gases like oxygen or carbon dioxide, which affects its solubility in water.
How do water plants obtain nitrogen if it is insoluble in water?
Marine ecosystems: Nitrogen is fixed in the photic zone by cyanobacteria who acquire it from the atmosphere (it isn't completely insoluble). The fixed Nitrogen can enter the water as Ammonia or Urea (which is soluble) and rains down to the deeper parts of the Ocean as detritus. Large Brown and Green algae, sea grasses and other plants of the ocean acquire Nitrogen from the Ammonia or Urea dissolved in the water, while organisms in the lower zones of the Ocean can filter feed Nitrogen from the detritus (these organisms are a part of the Nitrogen cycle, but are not plants obviously). Otherwise, algae typically grow to have a significant part of their bodies reach the surface, where they can fix Nitrogen directly. Aquatic: Either from ammonia released by bacteria, from bacteria living in the anaerobic 'soil' beneath the water or by growing to the surface and directly fixing the Nitrogen there.

Is fluorite water soluble?
No, fluorite is not water soluble. It is a mineral that is typically insoluble in water.
Is lead II chloride soluble or insoluble?
Lead (II) chloride is insoluble in water. It forms a white precipitate when mixed with water.
Is MnS soluble or insoluble?
Insoluble. Metallic sulfides are very poorly soluble in water.
Is nitrogen a solution?
Nitrogen is a diatomic elemental gas (79% in air) and rather insoluble in water.
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.
What is the solubility of N in water?
The solubility of N in water is nil. N is the symbol for nitrogen and this gas does not dissolve in water. However nitrogen as a compound will have different solubility levels.
Is nitrogen a solute?
Nitrogen is a diatomic elemental gas (79% in air) and rather insoluble in water.
How are Nitrates and Nitrogen different?
Nitrates are the negative ions (NO3-) of nitrate salts in solution and Nitrogen is a diatomic elemental gas (N2), 79% in fresh air, insoluble in water.
When a substance doesnt dissolve in water what is it said to be?
This substance is insoluble in water.

Is Ag2CrO4 soluble or insoluble in water?
Ag2CrO4 is insoluble in water.
Why is something insoluble in water?
Oils are insoluble in water because they are bases.
What are organic macromolecules that are insoluble in water?
