Nitrogen is an unreactive gas, easy to obtain and at reasonable cost.
It is not used as an inert gas, but in lieu of an inert gas, of which there are only 6, it is sufficient and cost effective.
In the atmosphere nitrogen takes the form of the diatomic nitrogen molecule, N2.
No, n2 (nitrogen gas) is not considered an air pollutant.
N2
The bonds between two atoms of nitrogen (78% of the atmosphere) in the N2 molecule make it inert for many purposes. However under high heat (lightning for example) it reacts with oxygen to form nitrogen compounds. Argon at 1% of the atmosphere is a noble gas and is inert under all atmospheric conditions.
Most of the nitrogen in the biosphere is located in the atmosphere, where it exists as a gas (N2). Nitrogen gas makes up about 78% of Earth's atmosphere.
Nitrogen, N2, (about 79% in air) is a rather inert gas.
Gold is an inert metal, Helium, Argon, and the other nobel gases are inert. Nitrogen gas (N2) is considered inert for most purposes, though nitrogen is found in a lot of compound.
Six noble gases (group 18), and Nitrogen (N2) gas are all inert. They are all different elements, so: 7
Yes, inert gases are part of the peiodic table. List of Inert Gases Helium (He) Neon (Ne) Argon (Ar) Krypton (Kr) Xenon (Xe) Radon (Rn) Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) Nitrogen (N2)
Nitrogen gas(N2) which contains 78% of atmosphere and Oxygen gas(O2) which contains 21% of atmosphere and the remaining portion is Carbon(iv)oxide and inert gas.
Firstly, N2 is treated sometimes as an inert gas as it is used to create an inert atmosphere so that no reactions take place. But nitrogen has many compounds as it is more chemically reactive than helium or any other inert gases. Its compounds: e.g. Ammonia, Nitric Acid etc. More on: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen
The reason why nitrogen gas is inert at room temperature is because the triple bond between the two nitrogen atoms in each nitrogen molecule (N2) is very strong, and therefore it takes a lot of energy to break that bond, and until that bond is broken, the nitrogen cannot react with any other chemical.
no, nitrogen is not an electrolyte. it does not disolve in water (polar solvent).
In the atmosphere nitrogen takes the form of the diatomic nitrogen molecule, N2.
Carbon monoxide is not an inert gas.
Helium (He) is a noble (inert) gas placed in the group 18 of the Periodic Table.Helium falls in inert gas. It is stable and non-reactive.
The standard enthalpy of formation for N2 gas is 0 kJ/mol.
