The lithium ion is essentially the same as the lithium atom, except it has lost 1 electrons. The number of protons and neutrons remain the same. Thus, the lithium ion, Li+ has 3 neutrons, just like the lithium atom.

How many lithium ions are required to bond with one nitrogen ionwhy?

One lithium ion can bond with one nitrogen ion because lithium has a +1 charge and nitrogen has a -3 charge, resulting in a stable ionic bond between one lithium ion and one nitrogen ion via the transfer of one electron from lithium to nitrogen to achieve a full valence shell.
