N2 - Nitrogen

Nitrogen is a transparent, odorless diatomic gas, common element in the universe. On Earth, the element forms about 78% of Earth's atmosphere and is the most abundant uncombined element.
 

Detailed Description

Health Effects - When inhaled at high partial pressures (more than about 4 bar, encountered at depths below about 30 m in scuba diving), nitrogen is an anesthetic agent, causing nitrogen narcosis, a temporary state of mental impairment similar to nitrous oxide intoxication. Although nitrogen is non-toxic, when released into an enclosed space it can displace oxygen, and therefore presents an asphyxiation hazard. This may happen with few warning symptoms, since the human carotid body is a relatively poor and slow low-oxygen (hypoxia) sensing system.
