Through that pair, nitrogen can form an additional bond to hydrogen making it tetravalent and with a positive charge in ammonium salts.

This liquid nitrogen vaporizes immediately and thus forms the cold gas flow.

The nitrogen in one of the six-membered ring structure can easily form salts and ions.

Scientists also already knew that nitrogen formed the dominant portion of the atmosphere, but inorganic chemistry had yet to establish a means to fix it.

The indole nitrogen of tryptophan 315 also forms a hydrogen bond to this scissile phosphate.

The mercury atoms form linear sp bonds, while the nitrogen forms tetrahedral sp3 bonds, in a face-centered cubic lattice.

During combustion, the nitrogen bound in the fuel is released as a free radical and ultimately forms free N, or NO.

It is noteworthy that nitrogen, phosphorus, and oxygen do not form acids with hydrogen.

Also, divers who ascend too rapidly can get decompression sickness, commonly known as "the bends," which happens when nitrogen in the blood forms bubbles.

If the diggers in the caisson reemerged into open air too quickly after working under pressure, nitrogen bubbles formed in their bloodstreams.
