One atom of nitrogen has 7 protons, 7 neutrons, and 7 electrons.
It happens so that each nitrogen atom can have 8 electrons (an octet), which is a stable form. It results in a nitrogen triple bonded to another nitrogen, and then each nitrogen has a lone pair of electrons. :N triple bond N:
6 total electrons are shared in a nitrogen molecule - 3 from each atom.
Through covalent bonding, the nitrogen atom will have 8 valence electrons, the hydrogen atoms will each have 2 valence electrons, and the chlorine atom will have 8 valence electrons.
In NF3, the Nitrogen atom has 5 valence electrons and each Fluorine atom shares 1 more electron with Nitrogen. That makes 8 electrons (4 pairs of electrons) around Nitrogen. Betweent the four electron pairs, 3 pairs are bonded with Fluorine and the other one is a lone pair. Therefore around the central atom Nitrogen, there are three Fluorine atoms and a lone electron pair.
Nitrogen has five valence electrons.
yes, they have 5 electrons in each atom
One atom of nitrogen has 7 protons, 7 neutrons, and 7 electrons.
7 electrons in 3 separate orbitals, 5 of which are valence electrons.
The atomic number of nitrogen is 7. That means that nitrogen has 7 protons per atom, each one having a +1 charge. Assuming that the atom of nitrogen is electrically neutral, there must also be 7 electrons, each of them having a -1 charge, in order for the total charge of the atom to be 0.
Nitrogen14, has 7 protons, 7 electrons and 7 neutrons.

Elemental nitrogen does not exist as individual atoms. If it did, it would be an atom surrounded by 5 valence electrons. Instead, nitrogen exists as a diatomic molecule. The nitrogens in the molecule are joined by a triple bond and each has one lone pair of electrons.
Since there are 7 in the Nitrogen atom and 1 in each of the Hydrogen then you have a total of ten electrons
Nitrogen's position on the periodic table means it is 3 electrons short of the stable noble gas configuration on Neon. If two Nitrogen atoms mutually share 3 electrons to form a triple bond, each nitrogen will have its required quota of electrons to iso-electronic with Neon and thus be stable. Add: Nitrogen atoms have five valence electrons. Two of the valence electrons form a lone pair, and the other three electrons are unpaired. Nitrogen atoms bond with one another by each sharing its three unpaired electrons with the other. This gives each of them six paired electrons, plus the two lone pairs of electrons on each nitrogen atom, which all together forms an octet for each nitrogen atom. An octet is a noble gas configuration, which makes the N2 molecule stable. The lewis dot diagram for an N2 molecule is :N:::N: .
Through covalent bonding, the nitrogen atom will have 8 valence electrons, the hydrogen atoms will each have 2 valence electrons, and the chlorine atom will have 8 valence electrons.
