What else can I help you with?
Is the tank for compressed nitrogen the same as a tank for liquid nitrogen?
no. Compressed nitrogen need not be insulated. Liquid nitrogen is always insulated. Typically compressed nitrogen is stored at high pressure(over 1000 psi) and liquid nitrogen is kept at less than 100 psi.
How can nitrogen be dangerous?
Nitrogen can be dangerous when it displaces oxygen in an enclosed space, leading to a lack of oxygen for breathing. This can cause asphyxiation, especially in confined areas like tanks or poorly ventilated spaces. Liquid nitrogen can also cause frostbite if it comes into contact with skin.
If you had a balloon filled with pure nitrogen would it be dangerous to inhale what exactly would happen to you if you did inhale it?
One balloon full? Nothing. We breathe Nitrogen constantly. It is only when you increase the proportion inhaled in comparison to Oxygen does it begin to have an effect. A constant stream of Nitrogen would suffocate you.
Why is it an advantage to transport nitrogen as a liquid rather than as a compressed gas?
The key to storing nitrogen as a liquid is that we need to compress and cool the nitrogen to cause it to change state from a gas to a liquid. By doing this, we can store a lot of nitrogen in a small volume compared to trying to store it as a gas.
Is nitrogen oxide dangerous?
Yes, nitrogen oxides are harmful pollutants that can contribute to respiratory issues, smog formation, and acid rain. Long-term exposure to nitrogen oxides has been linked to respiratory diseases and can worsen existing conditions such as asthma and bronchitis. Efforts to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions are important for protecting public health and the environment.
What gases are not dangerous?
oxygen,nitrogen,ho2
What are the properties of fluids that can make scuba diving dangerous?
The propertie that make the fluids dangerous is nitrogen.
Why can nitrogen be dangerous if it gets into drinking water?
Nitrogen due to it's extremely low boiling point, usually exists in gaseous state. so, on consumption, nitrogen mixes with our blood and due to it's low boiling point bubbles up in the blood, causing a painful and dangerous condition called bends. Therefore nitrogen consumption is dangerous.
Where is the largest store of nitrogen?
The largest store of nitrogen is in Earth's atmosphere, where it makes up about 78% of the air we breathe. Additionally, there are significant stores of nitrogen in the soil and oceans.
Can you breathe nitrogen safely?
No, breathing pure nitrogen can be dangerous and even deadly because it can displace oxygen in the air, leading to suffocation.
Were can you by liquid nitrogen?
You can buy liquid nitro at a coolant store
Can we breathe in nitrogen safely?
Yes, we can breathe in nitrogen safely as it makes up about 78 of the air we breathe. However, breathing in pure nitrogen can be dangerous as it can displace oxygen in the air, leading to asphyxiation.
Is the tank for compressed nitrogen the same as a tank for liquid nitrogen?
no. Compressed nitrogen need not be insulated. Liquid nitrogen is always insulated. Typically compressed nitrogen is stored at high pressure(over 1000 psi) and liquid nitrogen is kept at less than 100 psi.

What does the atmosphere store a lot of?
The primary element in the atmosphere is nitrogen.
Does Home Depot sell liquid nitrogen?
No. You can get it at a welding supply store.
Is nigtrogen dangerous?
Pure nitrogen can be dangerous as it leads to quick asphyxiation without the human body noticing that anything is wrong. Because air is mostly nitrogren gas, breathing pure nitrogen feels like breathing air (unlike breathing air that has a high fraction of carbon dioxide for example or noxious gases with identifiable smells), which is why it can be dangerous. Several deaths due to nitrogen asphyxiation occur in the US every year as nitrogen is used widely, for example to pressurize instrumentation compartments to reduce fire hazard or in research laboratories. Accidental death occurs when servicing such compartments without first removing the nitrogen athmosphere (see 1981 space shuttle accident) or due to accidental spillage (i.e. leaking containers). Compounds and molecules of nitrogen that contain oxygen and other elements, however, can be dangerous, but many are not. Cyanide, for instance, is a molecule that contains both carbon (the building blocks of life) and nitrogen. On the other hand, nitrogen monoxide (a neurotransmitter) and nitrogen dioxide (laughing gas) are mostly nontoxic, but as with all chemicals and molecules, including water, this is a matter of relative scale.
