Nitrogen Family

Chemical Properties:Phosphorus: is flammable and very reactiveArsenic: is reactive when exposed to oxygen (tarnishes)Antimony: reactive to water, concentrated sulfuric acid, and air when heatedBismuth: in a large portion is not flammable, but in powder form is flammableNitrogen: does not react with oxygen under normal conditions ,flammable (rocket fuel)

The Nitrogen family consists of (N) Nitrogen,(P) Phosphorus, (AS) Arsenic, (Sb) Antimony and (Bi) Bismuth.Nitrogen: explosives, jet fuel, cleansers, fertilizers.Phosphorus: Used as fertilizer for crops, metal polish, rust removerArsenic: Used as a poison to murder enemies, cosmetics, and rat poison, purify metals, remove unwanted colors from glassAntimony: cosmetic (Kohl), semiconductors, flame retardantsBismuth: used to make type for printing presses.

Physical characteristics: Nitrogen: is a nonmetallic gas. It is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. Its melting point is -346 ℉ and boiling point of -320 ℉ Phosphorus: is a non solid metal. Melting point of 111.47°F and boiling point of 536.9°F.Bismuth: is a typical metal solid except for nitrogen (gas) at room temp. Melting point of 520.52°F and boiling point of 2847°F.Arsenic: is a silver-gray brittle metalloid that loses the color when it is exposed to air. Its melting point is 1503°F and boiling point of 1137°F.Antimony: is a silver-white solid metalloid that has a melting point of 1167.13°F and boiling point of 2889°F.
