Here we have explain that the maximum possible electrons present in nitrogen valence shell is 8 whereas in phosphorous 12 valence electrons are present.
Although both nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) belongs to the same series there are several properties which are different between both the element. The number of electrons present in nitrogen is seven which are present in the -s and -p orbitals. The electronic configuration of nitrogen is 1s²2s²2p³. In which the outermost electrons are the valence electrons i.e. 5 valence electrons are present. The maximum orbitals are possible under the principal quantum number 2 are -s and -p orbitals. Now the maximum capacity of the p orbital to contain 6 electrons, as it is half filled in nitrogen another 3 electrons can be incorporated. Thus the maximum number of electrons can be present in nitrogen is 10 among which 8 is the valence electrons.
On the other hand there are 15 electrons in phosphorous the electronic configuration is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p³. Now the principal quantum number 3 can have three orbitals -s, -p and -d. So another 13 electrons can be incorporated (3 in -p orbital and 10 in -d orbital) among which upto 12 electrons can be its valence electrons.

Answer:
All objects can have the same size but have a different mass!
This is true, although it sounds fake. This is one example, there is a Neutron star, and Neutron stars are as big as a city, but they have a mass which is hundreds of times greater than our sun's mass. Because of them having so much mass, they are also having so much gravitational energy, which makes them also have gravity. They're so small, but have so much mass that they can do much. Even a drop of a neutron star can punch open the earth! It's true, so yes, it is possible for objects the SAME size to be having different masses according to that example.
But let's look on how they can have different mass.
They can have different masses becase of different densities. Put a iron ball inside water, and put an apple as close to the iron ball's side, what happens? The apple floats, becuase the apple's mass is less than the water, and the iron ball's mass is MORE than the water. So, because the iron ball is denser than the apple, that's why, it has more mass than the apple. The apple isn't much dense, it isn't as dense as water or the iron ball. But the iron ball is much more denser than the water. So because of the different material densities of the material, that's why it can have different masses.
Remember to Remember those 2 examples I gave you... (neutron star vs sun, iron ball vs apple on water)
