the hydrogen bonding is possible in oxygen, nitrogen,and fluorine

Remember FON. This stands for fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen. These three elements can participate in hydrogen bonding.
Nitrogen normally makes three covalent bond pairs and has one lone pair remaining.

flourine oxygen and nitrogen forms hydrogen bonding with hydrogen
In order to have a net charge of zero, nitrogen can have three bonds. it will often have more or less than that number with a charge on the atom. Example: Ammonia (NH3) versus Ammonium (NH4+)
Covalent
No, nitrogen does not become a negative ion before bonding. Nitrogen typically forms covalent bonds, in which it shares electrons with other atoms.
The chemical Bonding present is covalent bonding since nitrogen and hydrogen are non-metals

Nitrogen trichloride, NCl3, is covalent. Nasty smelly stuff!
