Step-by-step explanation:

Nicotine is a chemical found in tobacco leaves, and is an oily, colorless liquid in pure form. The nicotine content of tobacco ranges from 0.2 to around 5 percent of the total weight for N. tabacum and up to 7 percent or higher for N. rustica. Nicotine is also present in many other plants within the nightshade (Solanaceae) family, including tomatoes, potatoes and eggplant (in much smaller quantitites: eggplant has the highest nicotine content of these, but this is just 0.00001 percent by weight).

Nicotine is used in several different products, including e-liquids and nicotine patches, gums, inhalers or lozenges. Although nicotine is a key addictive chemical in tobacco, it’s considered less addictive than tobacco when taken alone because it lacks monoamine oxidase inhibitors and other chemicals that contribute to the development of addiction.
