Question

Why do Nitrogen gas has positive electronegetivity? (+7)​

Answer 1

Explanation:

hence due to high energy requirement, it has positive electron gain enthalpy. The outermost arrangement of electrons in nitrogen is uniform hence it gains extra stability. Due to this extra stability in the electronic configuration, it becomes difficult to lose an electron from the outermost shell of nitrogen.

Nitrogen is less electronegative than oxygen. All N-O bonds are polar bonds with more electron density on the oxygen atom. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and is in a row with a maximum valence number of 8. It typically forms 3 bonds and has a lone pair (:NH3) or makes 4 bonds with a positive charge (NH4+).
