Ainsley Martin · Answer 1

Lewis structure for 3 nitrogen-containing compounds can be drawn as:

:N:::N:, : : N:H

For the Lewis Structure for N₃⁻, we place a double bond between the Nitrogen atoms to complete the outer shells on all atoms and we will only use the available valence electrons for the molecule. There are 16 valence electrons available.
