Is it a good thing to have more oxygen than nitrogen in the air?

No, the ideal ratio of oxygen to nitrogen in the air is already balanced to support human life. Increasing the oxygen concentration can be harmful as it may lead to oxygen toxicity, while decreasing the nitrogen concentration can lead to nitrogen narcosis.


How much nitrogen dioxide is in the air?

The concentration of nitrogen dioxide in the air can vary depending on the location and time of day. In urban areas with high traffic or industrial activity, levels may be higher. However, the average concentration of nitrogen dioxide in outdoor air is typically around 20 parts per billion (ppb).


What is the percentage of nitrogen in the homosphere?

Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the Earth's atmosphere in the homosphere (the lower atmosphere where gases are well-mixed). This high concentration remains fairly constant throughout the homosphere.


How does nitrogen control rapid oxygen?

Nitrogen inhibits the combustion process by diluting the oxygen concentration in a closed environment. When nitrogen is introduced to an environment with high oxygen levels, such as in fire prevention systems, it displaces the oxygen and reduces the possibility of combustion. This process is known as nitrogen blanketing or inerting.


What is the use of the Dumas method?

The Dumas method is used to determine the nitrogen content in organic compounds. It involves combustion of the sample at high temperatures to convert the nitrogen into nitrogen gas, which is then collected and measured. By knowing the mass of the sample and the amount of nitrogen gas produced, the nitrogen content of the original compound can be calculated.

What does it meant that nitrogen burns a plant?

Nitrogen plant burns are caused when to much fertilizer (or fertilizer with a high concentration of Nitrogen) is added to a plant. If the concentration of Nitrogen (or Nitrogen compounds such as ammonia) is to high it causes the soil to become highly acidic in the area where it was applied, the high acidity damages (or kills) the roots of the plant retarding or preventing the uptake of water or nutrients by the plant.
