Nitrogen N2 has _ number of electrons, protons and neutrons.
Correct answer: C. 14,14,14
- A. 7,8,9
- B. 7,7,7
- C. 14,14,14
- D. 14,14,15
Explanation
The most common isotope of Nitrogen has atomic number 7 and mass number 14. Two atoms of nitrogen in N2 should therefore, have 14 electrons, protons, and neutrons.

About Atomic Structure
Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
