It is an element. Since any temperature is "natural", the physical state is meaningless. It can be anything from a Bose-Einstein condensate (unlocalizeable), a solid, a liquid, a gas, or a plasma... and be "natural" for that temperature. At standard temperure and pressure, it is a very stable diatomic gas (N2). Nitrogen's natural stage is N2 gas. It is diatomic and can only exist with 2 nitrogen molecules, so it must be N2 not N.

Nitrogen is a gas at room temperature and pressure, so it is in a gaseous state. It is the most abundant component of Earth's atmosphere, making up about 78% of the air we breathe.
