 WHAT IS NITROGEN ?

• Nitrogen is the chemical element with

the symbol N and atomic number 7. • Nitrogen
Nitrogen is a nonmetal and the lightest
member of group 15 of the periodic compounds
table, often called the pnictogens. It is a
common element in the universe,
estimated at seventh in total abundance
in the Milky Way and the Solar System.
 NITROGEN COMPOUNDS
• Nitrogen forms nine molecular oxides,
some of which were the first gases to be
identified: N2O (nitrous oxide), NO
(nitric oxide), N2O3 (dinitrogen trioxide),
NO2 (nitrogen dioxide), N2O4 (dinitrogen
tetroxide), N2O5 (dinitrogen pentoxide),
N4O (nitrosylazide), and
N(NO2)3 (trinitramide).
 NITROGEN IN USE

• Nitrogen is commonly used during

sample preparation in chemical
analysis. It is used to concentrate
and reduce the volume of liquid
samples. Nitrogen is also important
to the chemical industry. It is used
in production of fertilisers, nitric
acid, nylon, dyes and explosives
FACTS ABOUT NITROGEN
FACT #1

• N has no odor, is tasteless, and colorless.

FACT #2

• Nitrogen gas (N2) makes up 78.1% of the Earth's atmosphere

FACT #3

• Atmosphere contains an estimated 4,000 trillion tons of N 2

FACT #4

• Liquid Nitrogen melts at -210 degrees Celcius or −346 F

FACT #5

• French chemist Antoine Laurent Lavoisier

named nitrogen azote, meaning without life.
