If you drank liquid nitrogen, your tongue, mouth, throat, face, and digestive track, and possibly also your hand, would be severely frostbitten. This is more than likely result in a horrifically painful death.

Does liquid nitrogen burn skin?
Yes. Yes.
What will happen when liquid nitrogen leaks out of a storage tank?
It will heat up and evaporate.
Is liquid nitrogen an element or compound?
Liquid nitrogen is an element.
Who discovered liquid nitrogen?
Bob discovered liquid nitrogen.
Can liquid nitrogen gas be condensed?
Liquid nitrogen is condensed gaseous nitrogen. When a gasis condensed it is called to be in liquid state.
Is liquid nitrogen supposed to be left on the skin after treatment?
Nitrogen must be cooled to a very low temperature to become liquid nitrogen. At room temperature, liquid nitrogen will change from the liquid phase to the gas phase. Therefore, if the skin is treated with liquid nitrogen, the liquid nitrogen will almost instantly become a gas and evaporate away from the skin. It is impossible to "leave" it on the skin, as this reaction is almost instantaneous and no liquid nitrogen is left behind.
What is cold and burns your skin?
Liquid nitrogen.
Can the use of liquid nitrogen on your skin cause an allergic rash?
No. Nitrogen does not irritate skin. But liquid nitrogen is extremely cold, and it can damage and kill skin (and other) tissue. It is a bad idea to allow your skin to come into contact with liquid nitrogen. Note: Some warts are "frozen" in an effort to remove them. In a clinical setting, liquid nitrogen is sometimes used to super-cool an instrument so the wart can be frozen. But this is a medical procedure and is done by professionals. Liquid nitrogen is not something that should be looked upon as a "toy" or "recreational plaything" by anyone.
Does liquid nitrogen burn skin?
Yes. Yes.
Is liquid nitrogen deadly when coverd in it?
yes.it destroys the skin.
What would happen if you mixed liquid uranium with liquid nitrogen?
This mixing is impossible; liquid nitrogen become a gas. Possible formation of uranium nitrides.
What would happen if you poured liquid helium into liquid nitrogen?

Is there any product that just freezes an area of skin?
liquid nitrogen
Can anyone die if a liquid nitrogen accidentally spills on them?
no never!!Nothing will happen if liquid nitrogen spills on them but if it hits your eyes your eyes will be damaged.
Is nitrogen safe to touch?
You are touching nitrogen right now- almost 80% of the air touching you is nitrogen gas. Quite safe. LIQUID nitrogen is another matter- it is an extremely cold liquid that will freeze your skin on contact.
Is nitrogen used to burn warts and skin cancers off human skin?
Liquid nitrogen, which is very cold, is often used to freeze warts and skin cancers quickly so that they can be safely removed from the skin. This process is sometimes loosely called "burning off" the skin blemishes so treated, but it is not burning in the chemical sense. Any other cold liquid that does not adversely react with skin could be used as well, but liquid nitrogen is usually cheaper than any other available liquid. The chemical properties of nitrogen, other than non-reactivity, have nothing to do with this use of the element.
What will happen when liquid nitrogen leaks out of a storage tank?
It will heat up and evaporate.
