The main purpose of chemical nomenclature is to disambiguate the spoken or written names of chemical compounds: each name should refer to one compound. Secondarily, each compound should have only one name, although in some cases some alternative names are accepted. Preferably, the name should also represent the structure or chemistry of a compound.
Many stoichiometric phases are usually present for most elements (e.g. MnN, Mn 6 N 5, Mn 3 N 2, Mn 2 N, Mn 4 N, and Mn x N for 9.2 < x < 25.3). They may be classified as "salt-like" (mostly ionic), covalent, "diamond-like", and metallic (or interstitial ), although this classification has limitations generally stemming from the continuity of ...
The cyclic form was identified in 2003 by N. Hansen and A. M. Wodtke using ultraviolet photolysis of chlorine azide. Although the reaction yielded mostly the linear form, about 20% of the molecules were cyclic. [4] [1] The ring has C 2v symmetry [1] —an isosceles triangle—in contrast to the linear form that has equal N–N bond-lengths.
IUPAC nomenclature is used for the naming of chemical compounds, based on their chemical composition and their structure. [1] For example, one can deduce that 1-chloropropane has a Chlorine atom on the first carbon in the 3-carbon propane chain.

In the NO − 3 anion, the oxidation state of the central nitrogen atom is V (+5). This corresponds to the highest possible oxidation number of nitrogen. Nitrate is a potentially powerful oxidizer as evidenced by its explosive behaviour at high temperature when it is detonated in ammonium nitrate (NH 4 NO 3), or black powder, ignited by the shock wave of a primary explosive.
The nitrides of the alkaline earth metals that have the formula M 3 N 2 are however numerous. Examples include beryllium nitride (Be 3 N 2), magnesium nitride (Mg 3 N 2), calcium nitride (Ca 3 N 2), and strontium nitride (Sr 3 N 2). The nitrides of electropositive metals (including Li, Zn, and the alkaline earth metals) readily hydrolyze upon ...
