Which of the following is the correct representation of electron dot structure of nitrogen?

Answers (1)

Answer:(d)

Solution:

Electronic configuration of N (atomic number 7) is 2, 5

Therefore, it needs three more electrons to complete its octet. Each nitrogen atom shares three electrons to form a molecule of N_{2} as:

N\equiv N

Hence the correct electron dot structure is:

Therefore, option (d) is correct.
