Answer» Atomic nitrogen and atomic oxygen don't exist under "normal" CONDITIONS because each FORMS molecules N2 andO2. N2 is less reactive than O2 in most gaseous reactions because there is a strong triple bond between the ATOMS, all the valence electrons are in bonding orbitals, and more ENERGY is needed to excite them. |
