Answer:
The valence electrons of nitrogen in its compounds are all sp³ hybridized orbitals. The formal charge on N is usually -1 for an anion, 0 for a neutral compound, and +1 in cations. A nitrogen atom with a formal charge of -3 would correspond to a nitride ion, N³⁻, which is strongly basic in aqueous solution.
