Because nitrogen and nitrates are not easily permanently bonded with other elements. As are for example, the silicates or the phosphates. Or even the oxides.
Air on Earth is mostly Nitrogen, followed by oxygen, and then carbon dioxide and trace gasses
The largest single component is Nitrogen; it comprises 78% of any volume of air.
Dry air is just over 78% nitrogen gas.
Nitrogen makes 71% of the total air on Earth, making it the highest.
Air is made up of 20.9% oxygen, 79% nitrogen and the 0.1% is all the other gases (helium, hydrogen, neon, ect.). It is possible to separate air into those component parts and concentrate them for other uses.
Which gas is air mostly made up from
nitrogen
78 percent Air is mostly gas The air in Earth's atmosphere is made up of approximately 78 percent nitrogen and 21 percent oxygen.
78% Nitrogen 21% Oxygen 1% Carbon Dioxide & other gasses.
It is normally know as 'air' and air is made up mostly of nitrogen and oxygen. Oxygen is the gas that the body needs to survive.
Nitrogen is an element and the gas is diatomic in other words the gas in the air is made of two atoms of nitrogen.
Clouds are mostly made up of water vapor, which is indeed a gas. Air itself isn't a gas, but it is made up of many different gases, such as nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, and many others.
Nitrogen.
The air mostly consists of nitrogen. :)
The same gas as the Air we breath. (Mostly Nitrogen, Oxygen and Argon)
