Series Exploring the elements
Exploring the elements (Enslow Publishing)
Audience Grades 5 to 8.
Summary "Take a deep breath. You're breathing in nitrogen! This element makes up 78% of the air around us. While nitrogen by itself is incredibly stable, nitrogen compounds have a tendency to explode! Dynamite contains nitrogen, and so do air bags, which use a small explosion to fill up and keep us safe in a car crash. In this informative text, we'll explore this important element, seeing how nitrogen cycles through the environment and even makes up part of our own bodies. Without nitrogen, we wouldn't exist!"-- Provided by publisher.
