Bob, a cigar for you . . . rather than an "A"A mole of any substance consists of Avogadro's number of the constituent entities of that substance.
Entities are typically molecules but may also be atoms, ions, atomic particles, etc. Avogadro's number, approximately 6.02214

OMG__Some dead horses just ask for another beating, so here goes!
Guys, Lets quantify this Nitrogen question in specific terms and take all the opinions and guesswork out of a solvable-Specific Gas Law physics equation for once and all. (Read this as - answer this for me Nitrogen salesman OR Where are you now "Corky Downing")

Corky, have you heard of Gas Stoichiometry?
The mathematics of this problem are pretty simple! but at the sake of being really obvious,

(1) One mole of gas = 22.4 L - So, How many moles of gas are in a 12RX22.5?( ___= M) (2) So then, how many Litres of gas are you actually displacing in a 12R X 22.5 Tire at 110 PSI when you replace the 21% Oxygen that was in that tire with 21% Nitrogen.(M-D = R__) ??? (3) Ok, Now that we know the volume of displacement, what does that amount weigh(-__) Take the weight of that nitrogen - (Minus)- the weight of the displaced Oxygen -(=__) (4) Ok, Next-- The Specific Gas Law relating to multiatomic or mixed gasses applies to gasses at pressure ( That means 1000 to 5000+ PSI) (5) The lower the pressure, then the lower the connection between intermolecular diversity and therefore the lower the kinetic energy potential. So, at 100PSI do you have anything to even measure(__)?
If you are going to be travelling from 100 degrees F at Sea Level to 37,000 feet and -10degrees F and then back to 100F at Sea Level and then back to 37,000 feet over and over--- maybe we have something to talk about here because of condensation and solubility of Oxygen in a liquid. Till then, are you actually paying money for AIR!

Thanks,

Steve.

"The normal composition of Air is 78% to 79% Nitrogen, 1% inert gas, and 20% to 21% Oxygen. So, by using 100% Nitrogen, you are only displacing 21% to 22% of the total volume that was Oxygen/Inert."
My question is: What happened to the carbon dioxide? Isn't that what global warming is all about? How do you eliminate from your tires? Maybe we could use the same method to end golbal warming.

WOW !! This has been interesting. To set the record straight.. No, I'm not selling nitrogen services or products. Yes, I have used it in my Caddy for over 2 years and our Jeep for over a year. Why? ~~ well, I got my new tires from Costco. I did not even pay attention or notice the green caps.
Has it worked? YES, as we have not had to add air as yet and we are in the high desert and travel through many different altitudes and temperatures. Was the ride better? didn't notice it in the Caddy, but yes for our Jeep.
I put N2 the RV and thought it might be a good idea to share the experience with the group as I thought that this was one of the purposes of this forum. Ya know? ~~ nothing ventured-nothing gained...but I am not into all of the negativity from just wanting to share some "real time " information and wil aquiesse to you all who want to continue "nitro-bashing" To each their own. Has the banter convinced me that this is NOT a good practice? NO, but has it convinced me that others do not want to share my experiences - YES.
---'nuff said.
