Higher temperatures mean more heat energy which translates into more kinetic energy of the molecules of nitrogen gas. This greater kinetic energy allows the molecules to diffuse faster than at a lower temperature and lower kinetic energy.

Nitrogen gas is not in itself flammable, and does not have an auto ignition temperature.
Oxygen (O2) diffuses the fastest in and out of body tissues due to its small size and high solubility. It is crucial for cell respiration and energy production in the body.
Yes, diffusion is faster at high temperature.
Yes, molecules diffuse faster in areas of high temperature. This is because higher temperatures increase the kinetic energy of molecules, causing them to move and collide more frequently, which leads to faster diffusion.
Because nitrogen is usually very unreactive, it is only commonly found in internal combustion engines (car engines) where the temperature is high enough to make the nitrogen react.
