- Nitrogen is a non-meta, it is diamagnetic, which means it is magnetic when facing 180 degrees toward the magnetic field.
- It is similar to all group 5 elements, having 5 valence electrons. But nitrogen is different from two other group 5 elements - alimony and bismuth, as nitrogen is a non-metal and they are metals.
- Nitrogen reacts best with group 3 elements.
