Can plants absorb nitrogen compounds from soil on their own?

Yes. Vascular plants can absorb nitrogen compounds such as nitrates from the soil on their own.What plants can't do on their own is fix nitrogen from the air into nitrogen compounds. Some plants including legumes (such as peas, beans, lupins) and casuarinas form symbioses with nitrogen-fixing bacteria to form nitrogen into nitrogen compounds.


What are the periodic elements in lightning?

Lightning is primarily composed of nitrogen and oxygen molecules in the air. When lightning strikes, it can cause these molecules to react and form compounds like nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide. These compounds can then dissolve in rainwater to form nitric acid, contributing to acid rain.


What do silver nitrogen and oxygen make?

Silver does not readily react with nitrogen or oxygen to form stable compounds under normal conditions. However, silver can react with nitrogen and oxygen compounds in specific conditions to form various silver compounds.


Two ways by which plants get nitrogen compounds?

Plants obtain nitrogen compounds through the uptake of nitrate and ammonium ions from the soil through their root systems. Additionally, some plants have symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen into a form that can be used by the plants.


Does iodine and nitrogen form an ionic compound?

No, iodine and nitrogen do not typically form an ionic compound. Iodine is a nonmetal and nitrogen is also a nonmetal, so when they react together, they tend to form covalent compounds rather than ionic compounds.

Is lightning a source of nitrogen compounds?

Yes, lightning is a source of nitrogen compounds in the atmosphere. When lightning strikes, it can create nitrogen oxides which can then react with other atmospheric compounds to form nitrogen compounds like nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide. These nitrogen compounds can contribute to air pollution and affect the chemistry of the atmosphere.


Can nitrogen and bromine form ionic or non ionic compounds?

Nitrogen and bromine can form both ionic and nonionic compounds. When nitrogen reacts with bromine, it can form covalent compounds such as nitrogen tribromide (a nonionic compound). However, under certain conditions, nitrogen and bromine can also form ionic compounds, such as when nitrogen reacts with bromine to form the ionic compound ammonium bromide.


Can nitrogen rust things?

No: Rusting occurs by the combination of ferrous metals with oxygen from air or water, and nitrogen can not form the same compounds as oxygen does.


What is a form of oxygen that is created when nitrogen oxides and organic compounds in the air react with each other?

Ozone

Where does plants get nitrogen?

when animals eat plants,they get nitrogen compounds that their bodies need.plants do not make these nitrogen compounds. so from where do plants get their nitrogen compounds/ from the air


When there is not enough nitrogen in the atmosphere for plants how do the plants get it?

Plants do not actually get their nitrogen from the atmosphere. They get it in compounds in the soil through their roots. Some plants form symbiotic relationships with bacteria in the soil. The bacteria draw nitrogen from the air and form nitrogen compounds. The plants can then use the nitrogen.


Does nitrogen react with any other elements or compounds?

Yes, nitrogen can react with other elements and compounds to form various nitrogen-containing compounds, such as ammonia, nitric acid, and nitrogen oxides.


What is the process by which bacteria removes nitrogen from the air and form nitrogen compounds?

Bacteria utilize an enzyme called nitrogenase to convert nitrogen gas (N2) into ammonia (NH3) in a process known as nitrogen fixation. This ammonia can then be further converted into other nitrogen compounds by bacteria to be used by plants and other organisms.
