3 in neutral molecules:
e.g. 3 in ammonia (3 single N-H covalent bonds); 3 in a nitrogen molecule (a triple N-N covalent bond)
However 2 electrons are not used in bonding, and these can form another covalent bond in which both electrons come from the nitrogen. This is a dative or coordinate covalent bond and will result in an ion e.g. ammonium ion, NH4+

What kind of bonds can nitrogen form?
Nitrogen can form covalent bonds.
Does nitrogen form single bonds only?
No; nitrogen can form single, double, or triple bonds.
How many number of covalent bonds can One atom of nitrogen with no net charge form?
3 covalent bonds (as in ammonia).
Nitrogen has 7 electrons how many covalent bonds will if f?
According to the HONC rule. Hydrogen can form one bond. Oxygen can form two bonds. Nitrogen can form three bonds. Carbon can form four bonds.
Can nitrogen form 3 covalent bonds?
Yes, nitrogen can form three covalent bonds. It has five valence electrons, three of which are unpaired. The three unpaired electrons can form covalent bonds.
What kind of bonds can nitrogen form?
Nitrogen can form covalent bonds.
Does nitrogen form single bonds only?
No; nitrogen can form single, double, or triple bonds.
How many bonds can an atom form if it has an atomic number of 7 (nitrogen)?
Nitrogen can form a maximum of three single covalent bonds, one with each of its three 2p electrons.
How many number of covalent bonds can One atom of nitrogen with no net charge form?
3 covalent bonds (as in ammonia).
How many covalent bonds does nitrogen normally form?
Nitrogen can form 3 covalent bonds. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. If nitrogen is to remain neutral complete the following equation number of valence = number of non-bonding electrons + (1/2) bonded electrons 5 = 2 + (1/2) 6
Nitrogen has 7 electrons how many covalent bonds will if f?
According to the HONC rule. Hydrogen can form one bond. Oxygen can form two bonds. Nitrogen can form three bonds. Carbon can form four bonds.
Can nitrogen form 3 covalent bonds?
Yes, nitrogen can form three covalent bonds. It has five valence electrons, three of which are unpaired. The three unpaired electrons can form covalent bonds.
Why would the nitrogen atom form a covalent bond?
It would form a nitrogen atom because Nitrogen is a nonmetal, and covalent bonds occur when a nonmetal bonds to another nonmetal.
How do nitrogen dioxide bonds form?
Combistion
How many covalent bonds does nitrogen form with no negative charge?
The nitrogen atom forms 3 covalent bonds.
What atoms combined with nitrogen?
Are you asking what atoms can combine with nitrogen and form bonds? Lots: nitrogen can form bonds with other nitrogen atoms, forming N2 (which makes up 80% of the composition of the atmosphere). Nitrogen also commonly forms bonds with hydrogen (NH4 is ammonia), oxygen, carbon (CN- is cyanide). These are probably the most common ones, but Nitrogen can form bonds with many, many other atoms.
How many bonds would nitrogen make?
A nitrogen atom can form three bonds at most as it shows valency of three.
