Nitrogen is a necessary ingredient of what?

Nitrogen is a necessary ingredient of ____.


Why is ammonia the richest source of nitrogen?

Ammonia is the richest source of nitrogen because it contains the highest percentage of nitrogen by weight compared to other nitrogen-containing compounds. This makes it highly efficient in supplying plants with the necessary nitrogen for growth and development.


How much nitrogen do we breathe?

We breathe in approximately 78% nitrogen, which makes up the majority of the air we inhale. Nitrogen is an essential component of the Earth's atmosphere and is necessary for various biological processes in our bodies.


If nitrogen is in the air will a fire not burn?

Nitrogen itself is not a flammable gas, so it will not support combustion. However, oxygen is necessary for a fire to burn, and air is composed mostly of nitrogen and oxygen. Removing oxygen, by displacing it with nitrogen, can help extinguish a fire.


Is nitrogen necessary for breathing?

Nitrogen is an inert gas and is not necessary for breathing. Oxygen on the other hand is quite necessary. Without a sufficient partial pressure of oxygen in your breathing mix, you will become unconscious and if it is low enough, you can even die. For certain types of dives, nitrogen is reduced and sometimes completely removed from the breathing mix due to its narcotic effects at higher partial pressures. Dives have been done with helium and even hydrogen as substitutes for the nitrogen in the breathing mix due to their reduced narcotic effects at higher partial pressures. Not all insert gases work well though. Some are even more narcotic than nitrogen (e.g. argon, xenon).
