Is it true that nitrogen is a more reactive element than oxygen?
False, if we look at the general trend of reactivity of the non-metallic elements on the periodic table we see that reactivity is indirectly proportionate to an elements size. A Oxygen is a smaller atom than Nitrogen therefore more reactive.
Is sulfur more reactive than nitrogen?
Sulfur itself is a non-reactive element... although sulfuric acid is highly reactive.
Which is more reactive fluorine or nitrogen?
Fluorine is the most reactive element period. So, it is therefore more reactive than carbon. However, as carbon forms the basis of organic molecules, people come across its compounds more often.
Will nitrogen and oxygen be identical?
No. Nitrogen is triply bonded, and is much more stable at "standard" temperatures than the more electronegative oxygen is.
Is phosphorus a very reactive non-metal?
Yes, very reactive, more than silicon, nitrogen and sulfur (neighbours in periodic table. But it is not the most reactive nonmetal, which is fluorine.
Why do most materials produce oxides rather than nitrides?
Oxygen is much more reactive than nitrogen, somewhat more common than nitrogen, and tends to form much more stable compounds than nitrogen.
Is it true that nitrogen is a more reactive element than oxygen?
False, if we look at the general trend of reactivity of the non-metallic elements on the periodic table we see that reactivity is indirectly proportionate to an elements size. A Oxygen is a smaller atom than Nitrogen therefore more reactive.
Is nitrogen more reactive than calcium?
no, not even close
Is the gas argon more reactive than nitrogen gas?
smd
If nitrogen is so abundant in our atmosphere compared to oxygen why aren't there nitrogen breathing lifeforms?
Because really, Nitrogen in its gas from is a very inert substance. Even Legume plants that "fix" nitrogen in the air expend a lot of energy doing so. So in a way it's more worth while using oxygen, which is more reactive than nitrogen.
Is oxygen more reactive than sulfur?
yes
What is more reactive oxygen or selenium?
Oxygen. Oxygen is a gas making it react faster, while sulfur is a solid.
Why fluorine is more reactive than oxygen?
No, fluorine is the most reactive element that exists.
Are magnesium and calcium more reactive with oxygen in the air than is aluminum?
calcium and mg are more reactive
Is sulfur more reactive than nitrogen?
Sulfur itself is a non-reactive element... although sulfuric acid is highly reactive.
How many Time more nitrogen than oxygen make up air?
There is: Nitrogen (N2): 78.09% Oxygen (O2): 20.95% in the atmosphere There is ~3.73 times more oxygen than nitrogen in the air and is in a ratio (oxygen to nitrogen) of 39:10 (rounded).
Which is more reactive fluorine or nitrogen?
Fluorine is the most reactive element period. So, it is therefore more reactive than carbon. However, as carbon forms the basis of organic molecules, people come across its compounds more often.
