A mixture of gases that strongly resembles the
major components of earth's atmosphere.
It's the oxygen. Since oxygen doesn't dissolve into nitrogen - air is a mixture, not a solution - you can't call it the solute and the nitrogen the solvent, which may have been the answer you thought you were going to get.

Four fifths can be written as a fraction as 4/5. To convert this fraction to a percent, multiply it by 100. So, four fifths as a percent is 80%.
The two main atmospheric gases are nitrogen and oxygen. The approximate percentage for nitrogen is 78% and oxygen's approximate percentage is 21%.
The ratio is approx 268 to 1000.

No, nitrogen does not burn in oxygen. Nitrogen is inert and does not react with oxygen under normal conditions.
Hydrogen and Nitrogen. Or oxygen and carbon dioxide, or carbon monoxide.
1/5 = 20%
1/5 = 0.20 in decimal
4/5 is bigger then 3/4
Nitrogen and oxygen can form nitrogen dioxide (NO2) or nitric oxide (NO) depending on the conditions. Nitrogen oxides are produced when nitrogen and oxygen react at high temperatures, such as in combustion processes.
Nitrogen. Molecular mass of N2 = 14 x 2 = 28 Molecular mass of O2 = 16 x 2 = 32 32 > 28 Hence oxygen is heavier than nitrogen. NB CO2 is heavier again. Molecular mass is 12 + ( 2 x 16) = 44 So CO2 fall to the ground and is absorbed by 'green' plant life to form oxygen and biomass.
Nitrogen and oxygen are individual elements with different properties.
Nitrogen and Oxygen
Nitric oxide + oxygen => Nitrogen Dioxide
The two major components of the earth's atmosphere are nitrogen and oxygen. There is also trace amounts of hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and other gases.
