It is chemically very inert in the free state, and as such is incapable of supporting life (hence the name azote still used by French chemists); but it forms many important compounds, as ammonia, nitric acid, the cyanides, etc, and is a constituent of all organized living tissues, animal or vegetable. Symbol N. Atomic weight It was formerly regarded as a permanent noncondensible gas, but was liquefied in by Cailletet of Paris, and Pictet of Geneva.
