The element nitrogen forms a(n) with the charge . The symbol for this ion is , and the name is . The number of electrons in this ion is .

The element nitrogen forms an anion with the charge -3. The symbol for this ion is N³⁻, and the name is nitride. The number of electrons in this ion is 10.

Explanation:

The element nitrogen is in the Group 15 in the Periodic Table, so it tends to gain 3 electrons (3 negative charges) to fill its valance shell with 8 electrons.

The element nitrogen forms an anion with the charge -3. The symbol for this ion is N³⁻, and the name is nitride. The number of electrons in this ion is 10 (the original 7 plus the 3 gained). It is isoelectronic with the gas Neon, which accounts for its stability.
