nitrogen has higher ie than oxygen because of thd half filled p-orbital ie. 1s2 2s2 2p6 hence more enery is required to remove the electron from the orbital
nitrogen has more ie than carbon because as we move along a period the ie increase becausean.electron is added to the valence shell

∙ 13y agoNitrogen -Electron configuaration[He]2s22p3 has three electrons in individual 2p orbitals with aligned spins because electrons try and stay as far apart as possible. Oxygen -Electron Configuration -[He]2s22p4 must put 2 electrons in a 2p orbital with opposite spins. This causes a slight repulsion between these electrons which is greater than electrons in separate orbitals making this electron slightly easier to remove.
in nitrogen ,there are 3 electrons in outer shell i.e., it is half filled orbital and it required more energy to remove one electron because it is in stable state.But it in oxygen an electron can be easily removed.

∙ 11y agoO has a lower 1st IE than N because O is 1s2 2s2 2p4 and N is 1s2 2s2 2p3. The 4th electron in the O atom's outer level has to pair up with one of the others, and this introduces repulsions, which makes it easier to remove

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 nitrogen more reactive than oxygen?
No, oxygen is the more reactive element!
Which gas condenses faster argon or oxygen or nitrogen?
which gas condensed more faster nitrogen,argon and oxygen
Is there more nitrogen or more oxygen in dry air?
more nitrogen. percentage of gases in air is as follow 78.09% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.039% carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases
Do you breathe in more oxygen or nitrogen?
you breathe in more nitrogen then oxygen because there is 78% n in the air and 21% o in the air
Does the atmosphere have more nitrogen or oxygen in it?
Nitrogen is more in the atmosphere. Around 78% of the atmosphere is nitrogen gas and 21% is oxygen gas.
What is more abundant in the atmosphere oxygen or Nitrogen?
Nitrogen
Which is more volatile nitrogen oxygen or argon?
Nitrogen is more volatile as it has a lower boiling point, then argon and then oxygen.
What gas is more abundant nitrogen or oxygen?
In the atmosphere, Nitrogen is about four times as common as is Oxygen.
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 makes up more of the atmosphere Nitrogen or Oxygen?
Nitrogen
Why does F have a larger first ionization energy than O?
First ionization energy increases as u move from left to right,so oxygen comes first than florine which means when u pass oxygen to florine the ionization energy become more than it was in oxygen.
Why did god made nitrogen more abundant than oxygen?
oxygen is used by human and animals for respiration but nitrogen do not. for consuming nitrogen plants need nitrogen fixation thus occurs on low scale on other hand oxygen is directly used so its cunsumbtion is more then nitrogen. another important point is that oxygen is used in burning, formation of water etc thus means ratio of cunsumbtion of oxygen is more then nitrogen ,if there was more oxygen then it would lead to a blast every time there was a spark
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 nitrogen more reactive than oxygen?
No, oxygen is the more reactive element!
What is the most abundant of nitrogen and oxygen?
Nitrogen is more abundant; our atmosphere is 78% Nitrogen.
How many times more than oxygen makes 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).
