Nitrogen (N) has 7 electrons in total. 2 in its first orbit and 5 in its second orbit (only has two orbits because it is in the second period of the Periodic Table). For a full, outer shell/orbit (8 electrons), it needs 3 more electrons.
5+3 = 8
Nitrogen has a charge of 3- which means it needs 3more electrons. If you add how many electrons it has gainedto the total number of electrons Nitrogen has (7) then you will find the element it is isoelectronic with.
7+3 = 10
Now find the element with 10 electrons (# of electrons = # of protons & # of protons = the atomic number of an element).
Neon (Ne) on the periodic table has an atomic number of 10 so therefore, Ne/Neon is the isoelectronic atom with Nitrogen.
Nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine are isoelectronic with carbon because they all have the same number of electrons (6) in their neutral state.
Nitrogen is isoelectronic with oxygen, as they both have the same number of electrons, which is 8.
Nothing's wrong, except that it means elements X and Y are in fact the same element, if their atoms have the same number of electrons. --------- A more clear, correct and short answer: a neutral atom of an element can be isoelectronic only with an ionized atom of another element.
No. of protons is 7. No. of neutrons is atomic weight -no. of protons. In neutral atom no. of protons equals the number of electrons which would be 7 in this case. Refer to periodic table for more information.
Yes, Cs+ and Xe are isoelectronic because they both have the same number of electrons (54) despite Cs+ having a +1 charge and Xe being neutral. Their electron configurations are identical due to this same electron count.
krypton
Neutral atom. An atom of nitrogen will also be an isotope of nitrogen.
Helium is isoelectronic with nitrogen, as they both have 5 electrons.
Nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine are isoelectronic with carbon because they all have the same number of electrons (6) in their neutral state.
A neutral nitrogen atom has 7 protons. This is because nitrogen has an atomic number of 7 and each atom has the same number of protons as its atomic number. Therefore a neutral nitrogen atom would have 7 protons.
Neon is isoelectronic with the sodium ion.
Yes, Cl^- is isoelectronic with a noble gas. Chlorine gains one electron to achieve the same electron configuration as argon, a noble gas.
no electrons
Nitrogen is isoelectronic with oxygen, as they both have the same number of electrons, which is 8.
The neutral nitrogen atom and the neutral nitrogen molecule has no net charge because they are made up of equal numbers of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. If the nitrogen atom or molecule gains or looses and electron it becomes a positively or negatively charged ion.
Nitrogen-14 atom has 7 neutrons and protons.
A neutral nitrogen atom has 7 protons and 7 electrons, and has no charge.
