Nitrogen Definition and 209 Threads

hi all How would nitrogen behave at 3000psi? or 6000psi? assuming it starts at liquid form and at 1 atms pressure heated to 20 Celsius. thank you

I've read a lot of articles about neutral nitrogen and its properties, but I was wondering if it was or has the same properties as nitrogen gas, N2? Like in regards to its emission/absorbtion spectrum, is it the same as the emission spectrum of N2 gas? thanks

if so is the only way to obtain it is to increase pressure and decrease pressure, and how long can it be maintained because online it says it can only exist for a microsecond, but if pressure and temperature is maintained why can it not be maintained longer

Why don't they tend to stay as they are?

Nitrogen is a lewis base because it has a lone pair of electrons with which to form bonds with electrophiles. Oxygen has 2 lone pairs of electrons and halogens have 3. Why doesn't oxygen use any of its spare pairs of electrons to react with electrophiles?

I have read in a lot of places the PAN acts as a very good reservoir of nitrogen dioxide. I can't find much information on why though. All I have found is that PAN is thermally unstable and has a very short lifetime at typical tropospheric temperatures, but becomes much more stable at lower...

I was thinking about how you'd hybridize oxygen and nitrogen orbitals (should be pretty straightforward), but I was getting confused. It's clear to me for carbon binding to 3 atoms with a double bond on one (say C in benzene ring: electron from 2s gets promoted to 2p, then you have 3 sp2...
