Most antimatter exists as subatomic particles produced either in radioactive decay or large particle accelerators. No significant quantities have been made and the only antimatter atoms ever produced have been antihydrogen. Any antimatter that came in contact with liquid nitrogen would annihilate both itself and part of a nitrogen atom, releasing energy that would heat the remaining liquid nitrogen.

If you could somehow produce a quantity of antimatter equal the the amount of liquid nitrogen, when they came in contact instead of cooling the antimatter there would be total annihilation of both materials resulting in an explosion on the order of teratons of TNT equivalent as the temperature of the products jumped to hundreds of millions of degrees kelvin to billions of degrees kelvin!!!!!

Why is liquid nitrogen used for freezing warts?

it is easy to use. easy to get, effective, and cheap.


What is the purple liquid leak under the hood of your car?

Some foreign car makers use a purple colored anti-freeze, so my guess would be you have an coolant leak.


What kind of nitrogen do plants need?

Bacteria and plant roots perform nitrogen fixation, which allows plants to use the nitrogen. Nitrogen is used in cells to build proteins and DNA. However, plants get their nitrogen as "nutrients" in the soil.


How fast would antimatter make the shuttle goe in space?

An antimatter-propelled shuttle would go as fast as a normal shuttle. What defines the necessary speed for a shuttle is a combination of two factors: a) The escape velocity of Earth's gravity field (the speed at which a body needs to be launched in ballistic flight in order to exit from the gravitational pull of Earth). b) The amount of acceleration the cargo (or crew) can stand. Antimatter engines are actually designed to be fired in space, since matter-antimatter reactions produce gamma rays, which would leave a trail of radioactive air in their wake, if fired in atmosphere. The true power of antimatter propulsion is the capacity to use a very small volume of fuel to accelerate a ship in space for a very long journey. They are not cheap, they are not easy to build and they are not yet feasible (because we cannot, as yes, contain antimatter for long), but, in thesis, they can take people far far away from home. ;)

How does liquid nitrogen mand leaking pipes?

It doesn't mend the pipe. The pipe will still have a leak. However, you can use liquid nitrogen to freeze the water in a pipe and create a 'freeze block' which will prevent more liquid from getting to the leak. Once the freeze block is in place, it is much easier to repair the pipe leak.


Can you freeze liquor with liquid nitrogen?

About the temperature of dry ice. It is the same as putting frozen water (ice) in a glass of water. The temperature of the ice and water will be about equal to the freezing point of water. Alcohol is used because it has a freezing point lower than H2O, if you put dry ice in water everything will freeze.


What is a warts treatment?

Your doctor may use liquid nitrogen to freeze the wart. This treatment is called cryotherapy or cryosurgery. Applying liquid nitrogen to the wart causes a little discomfort. To completely remove a wart, liquid nitrogen treatments may be needed every 1 to 3 weeks for a total of 2 to 4 times.
