Nitrogen compounds, such as ammonium salts, have high enthalpy (energy) levels, so nitrogen is more likely to be found in the form of free nitrogen. Compare to oxygen and hydrogen, which can also exist in free form, but have lower enthalpy when forming compounds which are liquid (water) or solid (carbonates). Therefore, hydrogen is barely found in the atmosphere, while oxygen would barely be found in the atmosphere if it were not for the green plants which suck up CO2, thereby keeping the atmosphere out of the equilibrium in which it would be without green plants.

It is inert and stable in the atmosphere. As the bond energy is high it will remain in the molecular form N2. I t also mantains the inertness of the atmosphere or else every thing will be burning if O2 oxygen will be in higher amount. Due to its inertness it is used in packaging food materials.

Most of the living thing in this planet are compose by Nitrogen!
Protein for example.

nitrogen is inert in nature therefore it does not react to form compounds.due to its inertness it is abundant in nature

It's nature. And I think it is why there is lives in the earth.
