The agent which are able to break a Nitrogen triple bond are:
- Humans (using chemical processes)
- Bacteria
- Lightening
The process by which the triple bond between two Nitrogen atoms in a nitrogen molecule is broken apart is termed "nitrogen fixation".
- Plants can only get the nitrogen that they need from the soil, where it has already been fixed by bacteria, more specifically, Nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
- Another avenue by which nitrogen enters a plant's life cycle is through lightening strikes.
- Each bolt of lightening conveys electrical energy that is powerful enough to break the strong bonds of the nitrogen molecule in the atmosphere.
Upon split, the nitrogen atoms are able to bond to oxygen in the atmosphere, and become fixed in the process of nitrogen dioxide formation.
Additionally, humans are able to break the nitrogen triple bond by means of chemical processes.
