below is the lewis structure of the nitrogen molecule. count the number of bonding pairs and the number of lone pairs around the right nitrogen atom in this molecule.

Respuesta :

The number of bonding pairs is equal to 3 and the number of lone pairs is 1.

Each atom shares an electron when two atoms join together to create a bond. The electrons involved in this relationship are referred to as the bond pairs of electrons. A lone pair, also known as an unshared pair or a non-bonding pair, is a pair of valence electrons that are not shared with another atom in a covalent bond. Atoms' outermost electron shell contains lone pairs.

Each nitrogen atom in N₂ has three bonding pairs and one lone pair.

Formal charge = Number of Valence Electrons - Number of Lone Electron Pairs - (Number of Bonded Electron Pairs/2) = 5 - 2 - (6/2) = 0

Therefore, each nitrogen atom in N₂ has a formal charge of zero.
