- A particular allotrope of nitrogen, N4, was first detected in 2002. (Allotrope just means a chemical form in which an element can exist. Oxygen, for example, has two allotropes on earth: O2 and O3.) The all-nitrogen compound only lasts a short while before breaking down to N2. The compound cannot be isolated, so its structure is not yet confirmed experimentally; we can only hypothesize what its bonding and shape are. This allotrope is generally believed to be either a single ring of four nitrogens or a single chain of four nitrogens. 1. Draw the Lewis structure for both the linear form and the single ring form.arrow_forwardA particular allotrope of nitrogen, N4, was first detected in 2002.
