What are the physical and chemical properties of nitrogen oxygen argon and carbon dioxide?

Chemically they are all inert - they do not combine with any other element.
Physically they vary in many ways due to their differing atomic weights. Features such as melting and boiling points, specific heat, density etc. will all be different.

∙ 11y agoNitrogen keeps oxygen away so no chemical reaction takes place, therefore it makes it suitable for producing chemicals. Nitrogen is good for food packaging, because like I said before it keep oxygen away, so it keeps the oxygen away from food as well which means the food won't smell bad. Nitrogen also stops the growth of bacteria.
Whereas, Argon is inert gas, it is not flammable and has no reactivity with other elements, so when using it inside a bulb it would be suitable because it heats up the bulb without the filament getting burned.
On the other hand, Oxygen is an explosive and flammable gas and reacts easily. So when using Oxygen in a bulb, it reacts easily. Therefore, the filament gets burned.
That's all I know for now, hope it helped :D.

∙ 14y agoThey're not considered to be similar. Noble gases already have an octet and will usually be seen as single, stable atoms. Halogens are one electron short of a filled valence shell, so they are often very reactive with atoms that can donate electrons.

∙ 13y agoi dont know, that is why i asked the question
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThey are all gases (=physical).
Inert (= chemical), mono-atomic (=chemical).
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThey share many of the same semimolocular properties. They also go BOOM! lol

What is sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide?
Sulfur dioxide has the chemical formula SO2.Nitrogen dioxide has the chemical formula NO2.
Is explosion of nitroglycerin a physical process or chemical process?
It is a chemical process. The nitroglycerin decomposes into water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and oxygen.
Is Nitrogen dioxide element mixture or compound?
Nitrogen dioxide in a COMPOUNDm because it is a chemical combination of nitrogen and oxygen. (NO2)
What properties of silicon dioxide make it sueful in sandpaper?
Use/equipment Your chemical dioxide Main properties to use Chemical or physical properties?

What is the compound for nitrogen dioxide?
Nitrogen dioxide is itself a chemical compound. It consists of 2 atoms of Oxygen and 1 of Nitrogen. Its formula is NO2
What is sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide?
Sulfur dioxide has the chemical formula SO2.Nitrogen dioxide has the chemical formula NO2.
What is the physical state of nitrogen dioxide?
formula for nitrogen dioxide gas and designate physical
What is the difference between nitrogen oxide and nitrogen dioxide?
No. Nitrogen dioxide is a compound of nitrogen an oxygen, meaning that the two elements are chemical bonded together to form a different chemical with its own unique set of properties. In a mixture the nitrogen and oxygen would not be bonded to each other and would retain their individual properties.
What is the difference between Ammonia and Sulphur dioxide gas?
Ammonia is NH3 (i.e. consists of nitrogen and hydrogen as its constituents) whereas Sulphur dioxide is SO2 i.e it has sulphur and oxygen as its constituents. The chemical and physical properties are also quite different.
Chemical formula for nitrogen dioxide?
Nitrogen dioxide is NO2NO2NO2NO2
Is oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen a compound?
Carbon dioxide is chemical compound. Oxygen and nitrogen are chemical elements.
Is explosion of nitroglycerin a physical process or chemical process?
It is a chemical process. The nitroglycerin decomposes into water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and oxygen.
What is an example of a chemical change wood burning glass breaking water freezing?
The chemical change is the burning wood because the products, carbon dioxide, water, ash, and soot, have different physical and chemical properties. The other changes are physical changes because the physical and chemical properties of the substances did not change.

it would be a chemical reaction mArKe ^_^
Is sulfur dioxide and nitrogen combine with water in the atmosphere physical or chemical change?
its a chemical change which forms suphurous acid (H2SO3) and nitric acid (HNO3)
