Question

How does the Earth get its brand new NITROGEN?

Answer 1

Answer:

Scientists show evidence that nitrogen acquired during Earth's formation came from both the inner and outer regions of the protoplanetary disk. Nitrogen is a volatile element that, like carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Nitrogen makes up 78 per cent of the air we breathe, and it's thought that most of it was initially trapped in the chunks of primordial rubble that formed the Earth. When they smashed together, they coalesced and their nitrogen content has been seeping out along the molten cracks in the planet's crust ever since.
