Nitrogen
by: Mallory Sovereign
History of Nitrogen
how? He did a experiment trying to figure out what the air was made of. He took a empty bottle that he turned upside down in a pan of water so that the air was trapped, he put a burning candle in the bottle, causing the water to rise. the air that was still present was nitrogen.
