Nitrogen needs 3 more electrons to have a complete valence shell of 8 electrons. Nitrogen has 5 electrons in its valence shell, and a complete valence shell for nitrogen would have 8 electrons to achieve stability.

Oxygen needs 2 more valence electrons to have a full outer shell. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, and a full outer shell for oxygen is achieved at 8 valence electrons.

No, metalloids typically do not have a full valence shell of electrons. They have properties that are in between metals and nonmetals, which means they can exhibit characteristics of both types of elements.
Nitrogen needs 3 more electrons to have a complete valence shell of 8 electrons. Nitrogen has 5 electrons in its valence shell, and a complete valence shell for nitrogen would have 8 electrons to achieve stability.
Nitrogen has five valence electrons as a neutral atom, but it is shooting for eight. So it needs to gain three more electrons.

Two elements that need 3 electrons to complete their valence shell are nitrogen and phosphorus. Nitrogen has 5 electrons in its valence shell and needs 3 more to have a full shell, while phosphorus has 5 electrons in its valence shell as well and requires 3 more to achieve stability.
A neutral atom of nitrogen (atomic number 7) needs to lose 3 electrons to have a full valence electron shell, similar to the nearest noble gas neon. This is because nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and needs 8 electrons in its outer shell to achieve stability.
Nitrogen pentafluoride does not exist because it violates the octet rule, which states that elements tend to combine in such a way that each atom has a full valence shell of electrons. In the case of nitrogen pentafluoride, nitrogen would need 10 electrons to achieve a full valence shell, which is energetically unfavorable.
the electrons on their outer shell, all atoms want to gain a full valence shell.
it needs six more electrons to have a full outer valence shell.
Nitrogen would have a neutral charge and eight valence electrons.
Oxygen needs 2 more valence electrons to have a full outer shell. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, and a full outer shell for oxygen is achieved at 8 valence electrons.
No, only the noble gases in the far right column have a full valence shell.
Valence electrons of any atom are located in the outermost shell that atom carries electrons. For example a carbon atom has 6 electrons: 2e in its first shell (which is full) and 4e (valence electrons) in second shell--there are no electrons farther than second shell for carbon.
