It depends on the number of valence electrons required to make octet or duplet( in case of H)
. For example, Nitrogen(atomic number = 7) has electronic configuration(2,5) which means nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and requires 3 more electrons to complete its octet. After gaining 3 electrons from atoms of an element with less electronegativity than N, it forms nitride ion (
).
Hope this helps.

Explanation:
In the molecule 2(NO₃):
An atom is the smallest indivisible particle of any substance. They chemically combine to give compounds and molecules. Some of them are able to exist on their own.
An element is a substance that has a unique atom.
NO₃ has two elements: N and O
Number of atoms:
N = 1
O = 3
but we have two moles of NO₃
O = 3 x 2 = 6
N = 1 x 2 = 2
