7. My Element Box...
Represents the physical and chemical uses of Nitrogen.
Throughout the exhibit it shows 3D objects in which
Nitrogen is presently used in, and it states the origin of
Nitrogen. I used a lightbulb to represent one of the many
uses of Nitrogen in everyday life, and I created a model of
the atomic structure.

8. Nitrogen is responsible for the orange-red, blue-green, blue-
violet, and deep violet colors of the aurora.
