Answer:

The enormous energy of lightning breaks nitrogen molecules and enables their atoms to combine with oxygen in the air forming nitrogen oxides. These dissolve in rain, forming nitrates, that are carried to the earth.

Answer: Yes, lightning adds nitrogen to soil, but not directly. ... Nitrogen in the atmosphere can be transformed into a plant-usable form, a process called nitrogen fixation, by lightning. Each bolt of lightning carries electrical energy that is powerful enough to break the strong bonds of the nitrogen molecule in the atmosphere.
