Question

Draw the electron dot diagram and structure of nitrogen molecule.

Answer 1

Electron dot:

\[\begin{equation}\begin{aligned}:\text{N }\vdots\text{ + } \vdots\text{ N}:  \ce{->} :\text{N }\vdots\text{  } \vdots\text{ N}:\end{aligned}\end{equation}\]

or

\[\begin{equation}\begin{aligned}:\text{N } \ce{\bond{#}\text{ N}:\\ \ce{^}\phantom{...}\\\text{Triple bond} }\end{aligned}\end{equation}\]

Molecular Formula: 

N₂ or N ≡ N
