Question

Draw the orbit diagram to show the formation of the following molecules: Atomic number of N =7 ; Na = 11 ; Cl=17 i) Nitrogen ii) sodium chloride

Answer 1

(i) Nitrogen molecule Nitrogen atom shares three electrons forming a triple covalent bond. (ii) Sodium chloride Sodium loses one electron to chlorine forming a positive ion and chlorine gains one electron forming a negative ion. These ions form an electrovalent bond and are held strongly by electrostatic forces of attraction.Read more on Sarthaks.com - https://www.sarthaks.com/842598/draw-the-electron-dot-structure-of-i-nitrogen-molecule-n-7-ii-sodium-chloride-na-11-cl-17
