  2. Nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen

    Nitrogen is a chemical element; ... that also has a low viscosity and electrical conductivity and high dielectric constant, and is less dense than water.

  3. Solid nitrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_nitrogen

    The thermal conductivity of solid nitrogen is 0.7 W m −1 K −1. [47] Thermal conductivity varies with temperature and the relation is given by k = 0.1802×T 0.1041 W m −1 K −1. [48] Specific heat is given by 926.91×e 0.0093T joules per kilogram per kelvin. [48] Its appearance at 50 K is transparent, while at 20 K it is white.

  4. Dielectric gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_gas

    Another commonly used gas is a dry nitrogen. In special cases, e.g., high voltage switches, gases with good dielectric properties and very high breakdown voltages are needed. Highly electronegative elements, e.g., halogens , are favored as they rapidly recombine with the ions present in the discharge channel.

  5. Dielectric strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_strength

    For gases (e.g. nitrogen, sulfur hexafluoride) it normally decreases with increased humidity as ions in water can provide conductive channels. For gases it increases with pressure according to Paschen's law; For air, dielectric strength increases slightly as the absolute humidity increases but decreases with an increase in relative humidity [2]

    A compound semiconductor is a semiconductor compound composed of chemical elements of at least two different species. These semiconductors form for example in periodic table groups 13–15 (old groups III–V), for example of elements from the Boron group (old group III, boron, aluminium, gallium, indium) and from group 15 (old group V, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismuth).

    Its thermal conductivity (2,200 W/m•K) is five times greater than the most conductive metal (Ag at 429); 300 times higher than the least conductive metal (Pu at 6.74); and nearly 4,000 times that of water (0.58) and 100,000 times that of air (0.0224). This high thermal conductivity is used by jewelers and gemologists to separate diamonds from ...

    Let K 0 is the normal conductivity at one bar (10 5 N/m 2) pressure, K e is its conductivity at special pressure and/or length scale. Let d is a plate distance in meters, P is an air pressure in Pascals (N/m 2 ), T is temperature Kelvin, C is this Lasance constant 7.6 ⋅ 10 −5 m ⋅ K/N and PP is the product P ⋅ d/T .

    Nitrogen is a colourless, odourless, and relatively inert diatomic gas with a density of 1.251 × 10 −3 g/cm 3 (marginally heavier than air). It condenses to a colourless liquid at −195.795 °C and freezes into an ice- or snow-like solid at −210.00 °C.
