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.

Nitrogen is insoluble in water because it does not form strong interactions with water molecules. Nitrogen is a nonpolar molecule, while water is a polar molecule. Polar molecules dissolve in water due to the attractive forces between the positive and negative ends of the molecules, but nonpolar molecules like nitrogen do not have these strong attractions and therefore do not dissolve.
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.
No, fluorite is not water soluble. It is a mineral that is typically insoluble in water.
Lead (II) chloride is insoluble in water. It forms a white precipitate when mixed with water.
Insoluble. Metallic sulfides are very poorly soluble in water.
Nitrogen is a diatomic elemental gas (79% in air) and rather insoluble in water.
Yes, hydrogen and nitrogen can dissolve in water. Hydrogen is sparingly soluble in water, while nitrogen is relatively insoluble in water.
All Plants must obtain water by osmosis

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.
By combining Nitrogen, water, carbon dioxide, with sunlight. The sunlight gives energy to the reaction that turns water and carbon dioxide into complex hydrocarbon chains utilizing a nitrogen intermediate cycle in the conversion that is not yet fully mapped by plant biologists.thru photosynthesis. Plants absorb sunlight and convert it to chemical energy.Plants obtain energy by combining Nitrogen, water and carbon dioxide, with sunlight

from soil.
Plants obtain oxygen during photosynthesis from water molecules.
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.
Starch is insoluble in water and so can be used as a storage device for glucose; plants convert the spare glucose into starch then store it.
This substance is insoluble in water.
