I'm trying to find out if nitrogen gas is as cold as liquid nitrogen, and will it produce the same freezing effect.

By definition, the gaseous form of something is always warmer than the liquid form. Phase changes occur due to loss or gain of heat. Liquid nitrogen boils (turns to a gas) at -320.42 °F, which is why it has that effect. It has to be below that temerature to become a liquid so its extremely cold. It is possible to have extremely cold gaseous Nitrogen because any time it is above that temperature it will be a gas, but it will never be as cold as the liquid form.

no the air has alot of nitrogen.
The only reason liquid nitrogen is socold is because we make it that cold. Becase nitrogen cannot exist as a liquid unless it is very cold.

As mentioned above, 70-80% of the air you breathe is nitrogen.

You're in about 80% nitrogen gas right now. It can be as warm as you want.

At room temperature it is a gas. At some temperature around -19-*C it is liquid. I don't know if it can ever be solid.

80% of air is nitrogen (gas). Do you freeze? No. So ... .

No, you're breathing in nitrogen right now.

NO!!!! The gas can be from I think -230F to about +3200F

Only if you use nuclear farts.
