Is it true that liquid nitrogen stays cold indefinitely in an open container?
No. One physics reference states that liquid nitrogen in a container without thermal isolation warms up to room temperature, and a chemistry education article notes liquid nitrogen boils into gas as it absorbs heat. Together these indicate liquid nitrogen does not stay cold indefinitely in an open container.
