Answered by subhadra53

Answer:

It has 5 electrons in its outer most orbit,but take a look at the electronic configuration . It has 3 electrons in 2p orbital. Since there is no vacant 2d orbital (which is also not possible,it does not exist) to complete it's octet , that means to expand so N can only form NF3 not NF5.
