The Nitrogen Elements

The nitrogen elements consist of Phosphorous, Arsenic, Antimony, and Bismuth. This book explains their properties, uses, history, and chemical makeup.

This series uses a common or well-known element to look at the groups of the periodic table and to show the similarities and differences between elements. It uses full-colour illustration of the periodic table and shows the chemical symbol for each element in place, alongside its neighbours. Chemical formulae for common compounds are also shown. Information boxes and tables contain listings of facts and figures. Chemical reactions are interpreted as word equations, and timelines chart the history and discovery of the elements.

Provides an introduction to elements, atomic structure, and the periodic table, discusses the discovery and properties of nitrogen and the elements of Group 14, and looks at the importance and use of nitrogen in everyday life.

Explains the characteristics of nitrogen, where it is found, how it is used by humans, and its relationship to other elements found in the periodic table.

A readable, informative, fascinating entry on each one of the 100-odd chemical elements, arranged alphabetically from actinium to zirconium. Each entry comprises an explanation of where the element's name comes from, followed by Body element (the role it plays in living things), Element ofhistory (how and when it was discovered), Economic element (what it is used for), Environmental element (where it occurs, how much), Chemical element (facts, figures and narrative), and Element of surprise (an amazing, little-known fact about it). A wonderful 'dipping into' source for the familyreference shelf and for students.

Discusses the origin, discovery, special characteristics, and use of nitrogen in such products as explosives and fertilizers.

With more than 1 million copies sold worldwide, The Elements is the most entertaining, comprehensive, and visually arresting book on all 118 elements in the periodic table. Includes a poster of Theodore Gray's iconic photographic periodic table of the elements! Based on seven years of research and photography by Theodore Gray and Nick Mann, The Elements presents the most complete and visually arresting representation available to the naked eye of every atom in the universe. Organized sequentially by atomic number, every element is represented by a big beautiful photograph that most closely represents it in its purest form. Several additional photographs show each element in slightly altered forms or as used in various practical ways. Also included are fascinating stories of the elements, as well as data on the properties of each, including atomic number, atomic symbol, atomic weight, density, atomic radius, as well as scales for electron filling order, state of matter, and an atomic emission spectrum. This of solid science and stunning artistic photographs is the perfect gift book for every sentient creature in the universe.

Did you know that nitrogen is very important in all living system on Earth? You don't normally hear much about it but that doesn't mean it is not as important as oxygen. In this book, we're going to focus on the Nitrogen. At the end of this book, we hope you develop an appreciation for chemistry. Grab a copy today!
