Nitrogen

when you go diving, you take a pressurized tank of air, air consists of about 79% Nitrogen and 21% Oxygen, at normal pressure (atmospheric pressuer) the partial pressure of Nitrogen is 0.79 Bar and Oxygen 0.21 Bar which is safe.

Under high pressures (say 5 Bar which is at a depth of about 40 metres) the partial pressure of each gas increases Nitrogen (0.79x5=3.95Bar) which causes the lungs to absorb the nitrogen at a higher rate which influences the nervous system causing Narcosis (As if you're Drunk)

The reason why you can't take a tank of oxygen instead of air is that oxygen becomes toxic at higher partial pressures

According to botanists and scientific experts, lightning can be beneficial to plants, because it adds special gases to rainfall. This enriched type of rain nourishes plants with a potent dose of nitrous oxide. Nitrogen is an important substance that contributes to the health and growth of plants - in fact, most commercial fertilizers contain plenty of nitrogen-based compounds. Since plants don't have natural access to a lot of nitric acids, they thrive when rain-containing nitrogen gas is absorbed into the ground around their roots. This type of rain may also be absorbed through the leaves and stems of plants.

Sometimes, after a rainfall that was paired with an electrical storm (i.e. Lightning), gardens and other green areas seem especially vibrant and lush; this is because the area received a welcome shot of nitrogen through enriched rainfall. Therefore, lightning is helpful to most types of plants and flowers, although it may be dangerous to property, animals, and human beings. If you've wondered about the special properties in lightning, and just how they will affect plants, gardens, and grass, you'll be pleased to know that they are beneficial, rather than destructive.

Catching rain in special containers during an electrical storm may be dangerous; if you want to take advantage of nitrogen-enriched rain and use it to fertilize your plants and flowers indoors, simply make sure containersare in place and ready before a predicted lightning storm begins. Then, when is it safe, you can go out and pour the container's contents into awatering can or other handy vessel. Treating your beloved household plants and flowers with this special, fortified type of rain may be a great and economical way to ensure that your plants grow strong and that your flowers remain colorful, pretty and crisp for a longer period of time

Liquid nitrogen is used for cryotechniques as it can provide a very low temperature and used for the preparation of various nitrogenous fertilizer and compounds like ammonia, nitric acid, etc.

Nitrogen is colorless.

the color of it is green because my science teacher said it 2 me

your science teach is wrong it is a colorless gas =)

It is a poisonous gas and it's naturally produced while lightning occurs. An its a pollutant.

The symbol is just the letter N.

Yes, in the nitrogen cycle, atmospheric nitrogen is converted to biologically active forms through a process called nitrogen fixation. This can occur through abiotic processes, such as lightning or industrial methods, where atmospheric nitrogen is converted to ammonia or nitrate that can be used by plants.

The price of nitrogen can vary depending on the purity and quantity you are looking for. On average, liquid nitrogen can cost anywhere from $0.30 to $3.00 per liter, while compressed nitrogen gas can range from $0.30 to $0.80 per cubic meter. Prices may also be influenced by location and supplier.

Of Course. It is listed on every periodic table you could look up. Also, for those of you paying any attention in physics, there is a multitude of Nitrogen in the Atmosphere.

Nitrogen makes up approximately 78% of the air you are breathing now.

It has 23 percentage of nitrogen gases. Also it can be a fun and secret place to have sex, with .

The primary way nitric oxide is produced in the body is through the process of converting Larginine (one of the 20 amino acids) into citrulline. L-arginine, the source of NO, is released from proteins and small peptides in the small intestine and is then absorbed, along with other amino acids into the circulation. It is then delivered to every cell in the body. Some L-arginine is metabolized for NO synthesis and some is used for protein synthesis. Nitric oxide is also created from substances known as nitrates. As we now know, nitrites found in plants such as green leafy vegetable and noni have proven to be high in these substances, and when ingested the nitrates and nitrites are converted into NO by normal stomach acid. Not only does this nitric oxide protect us by killing almost all the bacteria that have been swallowed in our food, but it also diffuses through the stomach wall and enters the red blood cells or binds to protein to be carried off to all parts of the body.

Nitrogen cycle is conversion of air nitrogen to soluble form of nitrogen and then back to air nitrogen.

Lighting is part of nitrogen cycle.

When an animal dies and the body decays the nitrogen in many forms in the animal body reached back to the place where it came from.

Water pollution affects the nitrogen cycle the least. The nitrogen cycle is the cycle of nitrogen as it enters earth, becomes fixed, and leaves earth, back to the atmosphere. The only way that water pollution can affect the nitrogen cycle is if there is too much trash in one area of a body of water, thus clogging the surface and not allowing algae to absorb the nitrogen. It could also clog the surface and not allow denitrifying bacteria in waterlogged soil to release the nitrogen back into the atmosphere.

oxygen fixes atmospheric nitrogen

The volume of a liquid is typically smaller than that of the corresponding solid because the molecules are more tightly packed in the solid phase due to the stronger intermolecular forces. In the case of nitrogen, the volume of liquid nitrogen is smaller than that of solid nitrogen because the molecules in liquid nitrogen are more closely packed than in solid nitrogen.

Nitrogen in the air is primarily in the form of nitrogen molecules (N2) with traces of other nitrogen compounds collectively called NOx.

Nitrogen in the soil is in the form of nitrates, nitrites, ammonia or protein.

Nitrogen typically has a dull lustre because it is a non-metal and does not reflect light well.

Nitrogen typically has a valency of three or five, depending on the compound it is in. Nitrogen forms compounds with a wide range of elements due to its versatile valency.

It is an element. Since any temperature is "natural", the physical state is meaningless. It can be anything from a Bose-Einstein condensate (unlocalizeable), a solid, a liquid, a gas, or a plasma... and be "natural" for that temperature. At standard temperure and pressure, it is a very stable diatomic gas (N2). Nitrogen's natural stage is N2 gas. It is diatomic and can only exist with 2 nitrogen molecules, so it must be N2 not N.

It's precisely because it's so eager to get to the diatomic triple-bonded state. N2 is an incredibly stable molecule. There are few organisms capable of ripping it apart and fixing it into a biological useful state; most importantly, bacteria that live on certain plants' roots. This is why nitrogen is so important in fertilizer.

Anyway, when you convert an unstable nitrogen compound (at a reasonably high energy state) into that incredibly stable N2 (at a very low energy state), the huge difference in energy is released. If the difference is big enough, it's released as a big boom.

Nitrogen is not in oxygen; they are separate elements. Nitrogen is a different element with its own properties, and it makes up around 78% of the Earth's atmosphere. Oxygen, on the other hand, makes up about 21% of the atmosphere and is crucial for respiration in living organisms.

Organic nitrogen can be found in living organisms, such as plants and animals, as well as in decaying organic matter in the soil. It is released through processes like decomposition and mineralization, contributing to the overall nitrogen cycle.

All plants and animals need nitrogen to make amino acids, proteins and DNA, but the nitrogen in the atmosphere is not in a form that they can use. The molecules of nitrogen in the atmosphere can become usable for living things when they are broken apart during lightning strikes or fires, by certain types of bacteria, or by bacteria associated with legume plants. Other plants get the nitrogen they need from the soils or water in which they live mostly in the form of inorganic nitrate (NO3-). Nitrogen is a limiting factor for plant growth.

Daniel Rutherford discovered nitrogen, but he first called it noxious air. The name Nitrogen comes from the Greek word "nitron genes" meaning "nitre" and "forming" and the Latin word "nitrum".
