Answer is: low reactivity.

Nitrogen (N) is in group 15 of Periodic table of elements and his atomic number is seven, which means that nitrogen has seven electrons and electron configuration: ₇N 1s²2s²2p³.

Nitrogen is inert (low reactivity) nonmetal and has five valence electrons. Nitrogen has oxidation numbers from -3 to +5.

Nitrogen molecule (N₂) has strong nonpolar triple covalent bond, that is why it is very stable and have low reactivity.

Which practice does the Montreal Protocol aim to reduce?
PolarNik [594]
Ozone which is present in the stratospheric region of atmosphere is helpful for preventing harmful UV rays from reaching the surface of earth. Due to human activity, several compounds  (specifically chlorofluorocarbons) are released in atmosphere. Due to inherent chemical stability of these compounds, the remain stable in lower region of atmosphere and slowly diffuse into stratosphere. On reaching the stratosphere, these compounds reacts with ozone and thereby depletes the effective concentration of ozone present in atmosphere. Hence, <span>the Montreal Protocol was signed in 1987 by major countries of the world. This aim of this protocol was to protect the stratospheric ozone layer by phasing out the production and consumption of ozone-depleting substances.</span>

PLS ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS FOR 67 POINTS
Elena L [17]

Explanation:

1. subatomic particles. 

2.proton, electron and neutron

3.The atomic mass of an element is actually the sum of the MASSES of protons and neutrons in AN atom of that element

4.An element's atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nuclei of any of its atoms

5. Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

For krypton:

Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number = 84 - 36 = 48

6. electron, lightest stable subatomic particle known. It carries a negative charge of 1.602176634 × 10−19 coulomb, which is considered the basic unit of electric charge. The rest mass of the electron is 9.1093837015 × 10−31 kg

7.The center of the atom is called a nucleus

8. Negatively charged particles are found in multiple layers outside the nucleus of the atom. These particles are called electrons, and they orbit in various energy levels around the atom's nucleus.

9. A charged particle is also called an ion
