There will be a total of 10 lone pairs of electrons. In NI3, each I will have 3 lone pairs (total of 9) and the N will also have 1 lone pair, for a grand total of 10 lone pairs.

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.


What oxidation number must be assigned to nitrogen in nitrogen trifluoride to nitrogen triiodide?

In NF3, the element fluorine is more electronegative compared to nitrogen. The oxidation number of F in NF3 is -1. Lets assume then the oxidation number of N is x x + 3(-1) =0 x= +3 Oxidation number of Nitrogen in NF 3 is +3. In NI3, the element fnitrogen is more electronegative compared to iodine. The oxidation number of N in NI3 is -3. Lets assume then the oxidation number of I is y (-3) + 3y) =0 x= +1 Oxidation number of Iodine in NI3 is +1 Oxidation number of Nitrogen in NF 3 is +3. +3, as there is three halogens in each compund, therefore their oxidation number will add up to -3 and so to balance it out, nitrogen must be +3.

How many molecules total do nf3 has around the central atom?

In NF3, the Nitrogen atom has 5 valence electrons and each Fluorine atom shares 1 more electron with Nitrogen. That makes 8 electrons (4 pairs of electrons) around Nitrogen. Betweent the four electron pairs, 3 pairs are bonded with Fluorine and the other one is a lone pair. Therefore around the central atom Nitrogen, there are three Fluorine atoms and a lone electron pair.
