When two nitrogen atoms bond-they share three pairs of valence electrons. Why does this happen?
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:
Does the compound nitrous oxide transfer or share electrons?
Yes, electrons are transferred between the nitrogen atom and oxygen atoms.
The nitrogen atoms in a molecule of N2 share a total of?
6 total electrons are shared in a nitrogen molecule - 3 from each atom.
How many lone pairs of electrons does nitrogen triflouride have?
There is one lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom.
What atom has 7 electrons and no charge?
A neutral nitrogen atom has 7 protons and 7 electrons, and has no charge.

How many valence electrons does a nitrogen atom have then a carbon atom?
nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. carbon has 4 valence electrons.
Is ammonia an ionic or molecular compound?
Ammonia is a molecular compound. The hydrogen atoms share electrons with the nitrogen atom.
How many valence electrons does each atom of nitrogen have?
Nitrogen has five valence electrons.
How many unshared pairs of electrons does the nitrogen atom ammonia posses?
The nitrogen atom in ammonia has one unshared pair of electrons.
How many electrons will one carbon atom share?
One carbon atom will share four electrons.
What is the total number of electrons in nitrogen?
The Nitrogen Atom possesses seven protons in its nucleus; therefore the electrically neutral atom of Nitrogen has seven electrons in orbit about it.
How many lone pairs of electrons does nitrogen have?
There is one lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom.
