प्रश्न
In forming N2 molecule, ______ electrons are shared by each atom of nitrogen.

उत्तर
In forming N2 molecule, three electrons are shared by each atom of nitrogen.
Explanation:
A nitrogen atom has five valence electrons and requires three more to complete its stable outer octet. When two nitrogen atoms combine, each atom shares three of its own electrons with the other. This mutual sharing of six total electrons results in a strong covalent triple bond (N ≡ N).
