Nitrogen weighs 14.007 amu, is colorless and odorless as a gas, and makes up 78% of the Earth's atmosphere. It has two stable isotopes, 14N and 15N. Nitrogen is part of the nonmetals family and is used in many important compounds such as ammonium nitrate, nitric acid, and nitroglycerin.

    7 tall and 1.251 g/L. and he smells foul but is transparent and is a gas at room
    temperature.he melts at 63.15K and boils at 77.355K

    Triplets!

    family
    Nitrogen is part of the other nonmetals family. this includes:
    Carbon
    Oxygen
    Phosphorus
    Selenium
    and
    Sulphur

    The Future...
    ammonium nitrate- fertilizer and explosive
    nitric acid- explosive, propellant, mining explosive, cutting
    nitroglycerin, trinitrotoluene,and nitrocellulose- explosives and propellants
    for modern firearms
    Hydrazine and hydrazine derivatives find use as rocket fuels and
    monopropellants
    Nitrous oxide (N2O)AKA, laughing gas- partial anesthetic and used in
    surgery, most notably in dentistry. Also used to boost car engines.
    lithium nitride
    magnesium nitride
    NOTE*- it is used as a coolant for many things in its liquid form- liquid Nitrogen

    Adoption
    You can find him literally everywhere! Nitrogen is 78% of earths atmosphere
    and you inhale him every day with every breath. Also it is very hard to bond
    anything with Nitrogen thus making Nitrogen chemistry more complicated.
