Like the Statute of Liberty, Ellis Island's main building is a French-inspired symbol of the U.S. There are some lovely photos of the architecture on nyc-architecture.com.

Nitrous oxide gas is the active drug used by dentists in inhalation sedation dentistry to offer comfortable and pain-free treatments and help their patients to overcome their dental fear and anxiety. Even if you do not have a dental phobia, use of nitrous oxide sedation can help increase your level of comfort during dental procedures and shorten treatment time. It is considered as the safest alternative to other types of dental sedation such as intravenous conscious sedation and general anesthesia. Chemistry of Nitrous Oxide The chemical formula of nitrous oxide is N 2 O, also called Dinitrogen Monoxide. It is one of the several oxides of nitrogen; the others most known are nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide NO 2. The nitrous oxide moleculeâs structure is a linear chain of two nitrogen atoms, with the second one bound to an oxygen atom.
