There are 7 electrons in the stable variation of Nitrogen (the only time nitrogen isn't 7 electrons is when it is an ion, then it has 10 electrons). To find the amount of neutrons, you take the average Atomic Mass (14.007) and subtract the amount of protons (which is the same as the atomic number in an element, so 7)

14.007-7=7.007, 7.007 is the average amount of neutrons. There are different isotopes (atoms with different numbers of neutrons) however, the most common is 7 neutrons, but there is a Nitrogen atom with 8 neutrons, and there are more variations of isotopes that change the average amount of neutrons.

How many neutrons are in a nitrogen ion?

N-14 is the most common isotope of nitrogen atom and it has 7 protons, 7 neutrons


How many protons neutrons and electrons are in a nitrogen 15?

7 protons , 8 neutrons and 7 electrons in the neutral atom. Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus. In the neutral atom this is also the number of electrons . The "15" in nitrogen-15 is the mass number, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Taking 7 from 15 there are therefore 8 neutrons in nitrogen-15.


How many neutrons protons and electrons does a neutral atom of nitrogen- 14?

A neutral atom of nitrogen-14 has 7 protons, 7 electrons, and 7 neutrons. This is because the atomic number of nitrogen is 7, so it has 7 protons and 7 electrons to maintain neutrality. The atomic mass of nitrogen-14 is 14, which includes the 7 protons and 7 neutrons.


How many protons electrons and valence electrons are in each nitrogen atom?

Nitrogen14, has 7 protons, 7 electrons and 7 neutrons.


How many protons electron and neutrons are in nitrogen?

A neutral nitrogen atom has 7 protons, 7 neutrons, and 7 electrons. If it is electrically charged, the number of electrons will be different. If it is an isotope of nitrogen other than the most common (N-14), the number of neutrons will be different. Protons = Atomic Number Neutrons = Atomic Mass - Protons Electrons = Protons Atomic number is the amount of protons in element.

How many neutrons does the nucleus of a nitrogen atom contain?

there are 7 neutrons because when you take away the number of protons, which is 7 as well, from the atomic mass, which is 14 when rounded, you get 7 which is the number of neutrons in nitrogen.

How many protons and neutrons in ammonia?

Ammonia (NH3) consists of one nitrogen atom and three hydrogen atoms. Nitrogen has 7 protons and typically 7 neutrons, while hydrogen has 1 proton and no neutrons. Therefore, ammonia has 7 protons and either 7 or 8 neutrons, depending on the isotope of nitrogen used.
