Phosphorus from IAmArchangel, but i wasn't signed in at the time
Nitrogen-15 would have 8 neutrons, while nitrogen-9 (if it existed) would only have 2.
Nitrogen-14 has 7 protons, 7 electrons, and 7 neutrons. Nitrogen-15 has 7 protons, 7 electrons and 8 neutrons. So, the only way they differ is in the NUMBER OF NEUTRONS.
Nitrogen has two natural isotopes: N-14 with 7 neutrons and N-15 with 8 neutrons.
Every nitrogen atom has 7 electrons. There are 7, 8 and 9 neutrons in nitrogen-14, nitrogen-15 and nitrogen-16 isotopes respectively.
Well if you're talking about the atomic mass (which I'm sure you are), then the answer is 14.00674.
It is the 2nd member of nitrogen family, P, phosphorus with 15 protons, 15 electrons and 16 neutrons.
The element that is a member of the nitrogen family (Group 15) and has 16 neutrons is phosphorus. It has an atomic number of 15, meaning it has 15 protons in its nucleus. Adding the 16 neutrons gives phosphorus a mass number of 31.
Phosphorus, as a member of the nitrogen family, has 16 neutrons. The atomic number of phosphorus is 15, meaning it has 15 protons in its nucleus. With 16 neutrons, the total mass number of phosphorus is usually 31.
Nitrogen-15 would have 8 neutrons, while nitrogen-9 (if it existed) would only have 2.

Nitrogen-14 has 7 protons, 7 electrons, and 7 neutrons. Nitrogen-15 has 7 protons, 7 electrons and 8 neutrons. So, the only way they differ is in the NUMBER OF NEUTRONS.
7 protons , 8 neutrons and 7 electrons in the neutral atom. Nitrogen has an atomic number of 7. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus. In the neutral atom this is also the number of electrons . The "15" in nitrogen-15 is the mass number, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Taking 7 from 15 there are therefore 8 neutrons in nitrogen-15.
Elements are determined by their number of protons. Nitrogen has 7 protons but usually 7 neutrons as well. What you have here is a nitrogen isotope, an element with more or less neutrons than there are protons. Specifically, this is Nitrogen-15.
Group 15, the formal name being the Pnictogens. Group 15 was formerly called Group V or VA.
Nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 differ in their atomic mass. Nitrogen-14 has 7 protons and 7 neutrons, while nitrogen-15 has 7 protons and 8 neutrons. This difference in neutron count results in different atomic weights for the two isotopes.
The number after the "N", 15, is the mass number. The mass number is the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons. So, if you find a periodic table, you can find the atomic number, which is the same as the number of protons. Because the atomic number of nitrogen is 7, it has 7 protons. Then we take the mass number (protons + neutrons) and subtract the number of protons to find the number of neutrons. 15 - 7 = 8 neutrons in 15N.
In a nitrogen-14 atom, there are 7 neutrons, where the isotopes with mass numbers with 13 and 15, have 6 and 8 neutrons respectively.
