As anyone would guess, every atom has mass, an important physical property, even Nitrogen. But how do we know how much does a N atom weight?
First of all, if we know the atom symbol, let's say N, we can open any periodic table and search for Nitrogen.
In the case of Nitrogen the answer is 14,00674. However there is a lot of funny facts about Nitrogen that most people don't know. Shall we have a look?
