  2. Nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen

    Nitrogen gas is an industrial gas produced by the fractional distillation of liquid air, or by mechanical means using gaseous air (pressurised reverse osmosis membrane or pressure swing adsorption). Nitrogen gas generators using membranes or pressure swing adsorption (PSA) are typically more cost and energy efficient than bulk-delivered ...

  3. Nitric oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_oxide

    Nitric oxide (nitrogen oxide or nitrogen monoxide [1]) is a colorless gas with the formula NO.It is one of the principal oxides of nitrogen.Nitric oxide is a free radical: it has an unpaired electron, which is sometimes denoted by a dot in its chemical formula (• N=O or • NO).

  4. Magnesium nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_nitride

    Thermal decomposition of magnesium nitride gives magnesium and nitrogen gas (at 700-1500 °C). At high pressures, the stability and formation of new nitrogen-rich nitrides (N/Mg ratio equal or greater to one) were suggested and later discovered. [4] [5] [6] These include the Mg 2 N 4 and MgN 4 solids which both become thermodynamically stable ...

  5. Liquid nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_nitrogen

    Liquid nitrogen is a compact and readily transported source of dry nitrogen gas, as it does not require pressurization. Further, its ability to maintain temperatures far below the freezing point of water, specific heat of 1040 J ⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1 and heat of vaporization of 200 kJ⋅kg −1 makes it extremely useful in a wide range of ...

  6. NOx - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx

    The major source of NO x production from nitrogen-bearing fuels such as certain coals and oil, is the conversion of fuel bound nitrogen to NO x during combustion. [22] During combustion, the nitrogen bound in the fuel is released as a free radical and ultimately forms free N 2 , or NO.

  7. Nitrogen dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_dioxide

    Nitrogen dioxide is a chemical compound with the formula NO 2. One of several nitrogen oxides , nitrogen dioxide is a reddish-brown gas. It is a paramagnetic , bent molecule with C 2v point group symmetry .

  8. BET theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BET_theory

    gas molecules only interact with adjacent layers; and; the Langmuir theory can be applied to each layer. the enthalpy of adsorption for the first layer is constant and greater than the second (and higher). the enthalpy of adsorption for the second (and higher) layers is the same as the enthalpy of liquefaction. The resulting BET equation is

  9. Lithium nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_nitride

    Lithium nitride is prepared by direct reaction of elemental lithium with nitrogen gas: [2] 6 Li + N 2 → 2 Li 3 N. Instead of burning lithium metal in an atmosphere of nitrogen, a solution of lithium in liquid sodium metal can be treated with N 2. Lithium nitride must be protected from moisture as it reacts violently with water to produce ammonia:
