Question

what is the valency of nitrogen

Answer 1

the valency of nitrogen is 14

Answer 2

Answer:

Nitrogen is found to have either 3 or 5 valence electrons and lies at the top of Group 15 on the periodic table

The nitrogen atom has 5 electrons in the outermost shell, so it can accept 3 electrons to fulfil the octet structure. Therefore the valency of nitrogen in NH3 is 3.
