Question

gen atom will gain 3 valence electrons when forming the ion. look on the ion table. what is thl formula of the ion that forms?
name of the ion
formula with specific charge
nitride-
n^{3-}

Explanation:

Nitrogen atoms have 5 valence electrons. To achieve a stable octet (8 valence electrons), a nitrogen atom gains 3 valence electrons, resulting in a charge of -3. The ion formed is called nitride, with the formula indicating the element symbol and its charge.

Answer:

Nitride; \(N^{3-}\)
