Nitrogen can exist as a solid, a liquid, or a gas. Which of the following lists the
phases of nitrogen in order of increasing density?
1. liquid, gas, solid
2. gas, liquid, solid
3. gas, solid, liquid
4. solid, liquid, gas
The phases of nitrogen in order of increasing density is solid, liquid, and gas.
Nitrogen is known to be odorless and colorless. Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the gases that we've in the atmosphere. It has an atomicnumber of 7 and is represented with the symbol N.
It should be noted that nitrogen can be a solid, a liquid or a gas. When nitrogen is at ordinary pressure, it is known to be a gas. In a case whereby nitrogen is below 77°K, then it's a liquid and it's a solid when it's below 63°K.
The density explains the mass per unit volume that nitrogen has when it's either at gaseous, solid or liquid state. It should be noted that the highest density is at its gaseous state.
Therefore, the phases of nitrogen in order of increasing density will then be solid, liquid, and gas.
