Nitrogen dioxide is a chemical compound with the formula NO 2.One of several nitrogen oxides, nitrogen dioxide is a reddish-brown gas.It is a paramagnetic, bent molecule with C 2v point group symmetry.
The product is purified by recrystallization. Alkali metal nitrites are thermally stable up to and beyond their melting point (441 °C for KNO 2). Ammonium nitrite can be made from dinitrogen trioxide, N 2 O 3, which is formally the anhydride of nitrous acid: 2 NH 3 + H 2 O + N 2 O 3 → 2 NH 4 NO 2

The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at a standard pressure such as 1 atmosphere or 100 kPa.
The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.
Hydrazine is a fuming, colourless liquid that smells similar to ammonia. Its physical properties are very similar to those of water (melting point 2.0 °C, boiling point 113.5 °C, density 1.00 g/cm 3). Despite it being an endothermic compound, it is kinetically stable.
Liquid nitrogen has a boiling point of about −196 °C (−321 °F; 77 K). It is produced industrially by fractional distillation of liquid air. It is a colorless, mobile liquid whose viscosity is about one-tenth that of acetone (i.e. roughly one-thirtieth that of water at room temperature).
Nitrous acid (molecular formula H N O 2) is a weak and monoprotic acid known only in solution, in the gas phase, and in the form of nitrite (NO − 2) salts. [3] It was discovered by Carl Wilhelm Scheele, who called it "phlogisticated acid of niter".
