Lewis dot diagrams represt the outer shell electrons covalently sharing between elements. For NF3 it would it would be pyramidal. Nitrogen has 5 outer shell electrons therefore you would attach the 3 fluorine atoms to the three outer shell electrons on the nitrogen. Then that leaves you with one non-bonding pair.

What is the mass percent of nitrogen in NF3?

To find the mass percent of nitrogen in NF3, you need to calculate the molar mass of NF3 and then determine the mass of nitrogen in one mole of NF3. The molar mass of NF3 is 71.001 g/mol. The molar mass of nitrogen in NF3 is 14.007 g/mol. Therefore, the mass percent of nitrogen in NF3 is (14.007 g/mol / 71.001 g/mol) * 100% ≈ 19.76%.


What is the bond angle in NF3?

The bond angle in NF3 is approximately 107 degrees.


What is the Lewis dot diagram for lithium bromine carbon hydrogen silver oxygen iron oxygen potassium bromine and oxygine oxigine?

Lithium: Li has 1 valence electron, so its Lewis dot diagram is Li: . Bromine: Br has 7 valence electrons, so its Lewis dot diagram is :Br:. Carbon: C has 4 valence electrons, so its Lewis dot diagram is :C:. Hydrogen: H has 1 valence electron, so its Lewis dot diagram is H: . Silver: Ag has 1 valence electron, so its Lewis dot diagram is Ag: . Oxygen: O has 6 valence electrons, so its Lewis dot diagram is :O:. Iron: Fe has 2 valence electrons, so its Lewis dot diagram is :Fe:. Potassium: K has 1 valence electron, so its Lewis dot diagram is K: . Oxygine: I'm not familiar with an element called "oxygine". It may be a misspelling of oxygen. If so, refer to oxygen's Lewis dot diagram above.
