it could be described in both these ways but a molecule of nitrogen is more commonly used!! hope this helped

How many nitrogen atoms and how hydrogen atoms are in a molecule of NH?
1 nitrogen (N) to 3 hydrogen (H) 1:3One molecule of ammonia has 1 nitrogen atom and 3 hydrogen atoms: a ratio 1:3.
How is the molecular formula NO different from the molecular formula N2O?
A single nitrogen atom can be chemically reactive while a nitrogen molecule is relatively stable and tends to be faf more inert. A nitrogen molecule also has twice the mass of a nitrogen atom.
What type of charge does a hydrogen atom of an ammonia molecule have?
A hydrogen atom of an ammonia molecule has a slight positive charge, due to the high electronegativity of the nitrogen atom.
Why in a water molecule is the oxygen atom bigger then the nitrogen atom?
First of all, there is no nitrogen in a water molecule. A water molecule consists of one oxygen atom combined with two hydrogen atoms. Also known as H2O. However, it is also true that an oxygen atom is slightly bigger than a nitrogen atom. Oxygen has one more proton, and one more electron than nitrogen does. Neutron quantities vary, since there is more than one isotope of both oxygen and nitrogen.
Is nitrogen a compound or atom?
an atomAnswer:In the atmosphere nitrogen is present as a diatomic molecule. Two atoms of nirogen (the element) are always joined together into one molecule.
How is a nitrogen atom different from a nitrogen molecule?
A single nitrogen atom can be chemically reactive while a nitrogen molecule is relatively stable and tends to be faf more inert. A nitrogen molecule also has twice the mass of a nitrogen atom.
Is nitrogen gas atom or molecule?
pussyboi; atom
Is NO2 made up of 2 nitrogen?
The molecule of nitrogen dioxide has 1 nitrogen atom.
How many bonds does the central atom of nitrogen have in Ammonia?
IN an ammonia molecule the central nitrogen atom has 3 three bonds.
How many nitrogen atoms and how hydrogen atoms are in a molecule of NH?
1 nitrogen (N) to 3 hydrogen (H) 1:3One molecule of ammonia has 1 nitrogen atom and 3 hydrogen atoms: a ratio 1:3.
Is 1 atom of nitrogen a molecule or element?
"element" (2 make up a molecule)
How is the molecular formula NO different from the molecular formula N2O?
A single nitrogen atom can be chemically reactive while a nitrogen molecule is relatively stable and tends to be faf more inert. A nitrogen molecule also has twice the mass of a nitrogen atom.
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.
Number of protons in nitrogen?
A nitrogen atom has 7 protons. Therefore a nitrogen molecule has 14 protons.
What type of charge does a hydrogen atom of an ammonia molecule have?
A hydrogen atom of an ammonia molecule has a slight positive charge, due to the high electronegativity of the nitrogen atom.
Why nitrogen atom does not contain double bond?
A nitrogen atom contains three valence electrons so a nitrogen molecule N2 will form a triple covalent bond.
Why in a water molecule is the oxygen atom bigger then the nitrogen atom?
First of all, there is no nitrogen in a water molecule. A water molecule consists of one oxygen atom combined with two hydrogen atoms. Also known as H2O. However, it is also true that an oxygen atom is slightly bigger than a nitrogen atom. Oxygen has one more proton, and one more electron than nitrogen does.
