Here's why:
* Boiling Point: The temperature at which a substance changes from liquid to gas is called its boiling point.
* Nitrogen's Boiling Point: Nitrogen has a boiling point of -195.8°C (-320.4°F).
* Water's Boiling Point: Water has a boiling point of 100°C (212°F).
This means that nitrogen boils at a much lower temperature than water. At normal atmospheric pressure, nitrogen will be a gas, while water will be a liquid.
