Like aluminum, it forms a thin layer around itself to help prevent itself from rusting when exposed to air. Fine particles of magnesium can also catch on fire when exposed to air.

It highlights the contributions of Karl Bosch and Fritz Haber, along with operational parameters like high pressure and intermediate temperatures. The process utilizes a catalyst and focuses on maximizing ammonia yield through recycling unreacted gases. Ongoing research aims to enhance catalysts and further comprehend the reaction's energetics.

Nitrogen forms strong bonds because of its ability to form a triple bond with itself and other elements. Thus, there is a lot of energy in the compounds of nitrogen. Before 100 years ago, little was known about nitrogen. Now, nitrogen is commonly used to preserve food and as a fertilizer.

It includes examples for determining moles from volume, volume from moles, and calculating a gas's mass from its volume at STP. The page concludes with review questions to help reinforce the understanding of these conversions.

Although nitrogen gas (N2) is inert due to its strong triple bonds, it can become reactive with sufficient energy. The concept of bond energy indicates that higher energy correlates with greater stability and less reactivity. Bacteria play a crucial role in converting nitrogen into usable forms for plants and animals.

All Group 15 elements have the electron configuration ns2np3 in their outer shell, where n is equal to the principal quantum number. The nitrogen family is located in the p-block in Group 15, as shown below.

Nitrogen does not form stable catenated compounds because of repulsions between lone pairs of electrons on adjacent atoms, but it does form multiple bonds with other second-period atoms. Nitrogen reacts with electropositive elements to produce solids that range from covalent to ionic in character.

In general, a nitrogen atom with three bonds and a lone pair of electrons can potentially act as a proton-acceptor (a base) - but basicity is reduced if the lone pair electrons are stabilized somehow.
