Nitrogen Definition and 220 Threads

Hello, over the past few days I've been looking at glowing ionization tubes on YouTube. there seems to be this innate correlation and association between ionization chambers and noble gasses, like xenon, argon and neon. i was wondering is it possible for oxygen or nitrogen to glow like them ...

My Chemistry Teacher told that 5 of the 6 oxidation numbers of Nitrogen are not true. He said something like it is a mathematical trick for I don't know what. The real oxidation number is -3. Can anyone explain me what are the 5 false oxidation number? Thank you.

This problem was translated from Swedish, sorry for any grammatical errors. The problem A cylinder with nitrogen gas inside is closed by a tight piston (that can slide without friction against the walls of the cylinder). The piston weighs ##s=12.5 kg## and holds the ##m=28## grams of nitrogen...

"Most vegetables, annuals and grasses prefer their nitrogen in the nitrate form and as such do better in alkaline inclined soils dominated by bacteria. Most trees, shrubs and perennials prefer their nitrogen in the ammonium form and as such do better in acid inclined soils dominated by fungi."

I am trying to find the theoretical power required to compress nitrogen from a pressure P1 to P2, as well as the final temperature T2 after compression. I found no formula that were anywhere near complete, but I found this tool, which tells me that from 300K@1Bar, I need 271.4kw (271kj/s) to...

For group 15 elements the order of basicity given is NH3 > PH3 > AsH3 > SbH3 > BiH3 And order of reducing strength is BiH3 > sbH3 > AsH3 > PH3 > NH3 Why are they in opposite order? Reducing nature means tendency to donate electrons. Basicity means strength of bases and hence as basicity...

There has to be a way around the nitrogen fixation issue with humans - it can't be the case, as so thoroughly stated everywhere, where we have to consume nitrogen in foods (amino acids?) in order to satisfy our nitrogen needs. Is there any outside the box thinking, any super sleuths with a...
