Nitrogen could form 3 covalent bonds if each of its unpaired electrons participates in one bond.
Nitrogen atom forms 3 bonds based on octet rule, because it has 5 valence electrons. That means it needs 3 bonds or three more electrons.
<h3>Further Explanation;</h3><h3>Chemical bond </h3>
- A bond is a type of force that is formed between atoms of different through the sharing or transfer of electrons.
<h3>Octet rule</h3>
- According to the octet rule for an atom to be stable it must have maximum number of electrons in its outermost energy level. Therefore an atom with four electrons requires four more electrons to attain stability.
<h3>Types of chemical bonds.</h3><h3>Covalent bond </h3>
- This is a type of bond that is formed between non-metal atoms. It is formed as a result of sharing electrons between non-metal atoms involved.
- When atoms involved contribute equal number of electrons to the bond formation, the type of bond is known as covalent bond
- A covalent bond may be a dative covalent bond, when the shared electrons come from one atom.
<h3>Ionic bond </h3>
- This is a type of bond that occurs between metal ions and non-metal ions. Ionic bond occurs as a result of transfer of electrons from one metal atom to another non-metal atom.
- After the transfer of electrons, metal atom loses electron to form a cation while the non-metal atom gains electrons to form an anion.

- Dipole-dipole interactions, etc.

Answer:
C. spontaneous at all temperatures
Explanation:
The spontaneity of reaction is determined by the sign of the gibbs free energy.
A negative sign denotes that the reaction is spontaneous, positive sign means the reaction is not spontaneous.
From the question;
ΔS° = +253 J/K
ΔH° = -125 kJ/mol
ΔG = ΔH° - TΔS°
From the data given, the condition in which we can obtain a negative value of G, is at any value of T.
For any value of T, G would always be a negative value.
This means the correct option is option C.
The reaction for burning of charcoal or complete combustion is as follows:
From the above balanced reaction, 1 mole of carbon releases 1 mole of 
gas.
Converting mass of charcoal into moles as follows:
Molar mass of pure carbon is 12 g/mol thus,
The same moles of is released. Converting these moles into mass as follows:
m=n×M
Molar mass of is 44 g/mol thus,
Converting mass into kg,
Thus, total mass of gas released is 5.5 kg.
1) Ca-37, with a half-life of 181.1(10) ms.
Answer:
Fe₂O₃ and C are reactants
Fe and CO₂ are products
Explanation:
Reactants:
Chemical species that are present on left side of chemical reaction equation are called reactants.
Product:
Chemical species that are present on right side of chemical reaction equation are called product.
Chemical equation:
2Fe₂O₃ + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO₂
In this reaction 2 mole of iron oxide is react with three moles of carbon and produced four moles of iron and three moles of carbon dioxide. There are equal numbers of atoms of all elements present on both side of chemical reaction so this reaction follow the law of conservation of mass.
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
Explanation:
This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
