How is the Lewis structure of N3 determined?
How do you draw the Lewis structure of N3 using this information?
To draw the Lewis structure of N3, we first arrange the atoms in a way that minimizes repulsion of electrons. In this case, we have three nitrogen atoms bonded together. Each nitrogen atom shares a single bond with the other two, and the remaining valence electrons are placed as lone pairs. This results in a linear structure for N3.
