How many valence electrons are in N2?

Answer 1

The third energy level contains one s orbital and three p orbitals.

Answer 2

Nitrogen contains two orbitals; the first contains two electrons and the second contains five. The seven electrons equal the number of protons in the nucleus.

Answer 3

There are 4 orbitals in the n=2 shell.

There are also 2 subshells

The maximum number of electrons for the shell is 8

Answer 4

There are 10 valence electrons in N2, because each nitrogen atom contributes 5 valence electrons.

Answer 5

4

Answer 6

10
