It was named eighteen years later by the chemist Chaptal. Nitrogen is a clear gas that has no smell when it is in its pure form. It is not very reactive when it is a pure molecule, but it can create very reactive compounds when combined with other elements, including hydrogen (H) in ammonia (NH 3).
