Product is available in pure form containing 0.1 per cent water or less and only a trace of lower nitrogen oxides.
What type of compound is N2O4?
Dinitrogen tetroxide, N2O4 N 2 O 4 is a covalent compound as it is formed by sharing of electrons between nitrogen and oxygen atoms, which are non-metals.
Is nitrogen tetroxide an oxidizer?
Nitrogen tetroxide (dinitrogen tetroxide) (N2O4) is the “work horse” storable oxidizer.
