Explanation:
Each N3- ion has 8 valence electrons, so total number of valence electrons = 1.8 X 10^23 X 8 = 1.4 X 10^24 valence electrons.

The nitride ion (N-3 ) is formed when an atom of nitrogen gains 3 electrons.
=> Nitrogen atom has 5 valence electrons( e.c={2,5} ).
=> So, nitride ion will have 5+3 => 8 valence electrons.
