Q. In $N O_{3}^{-}$ ion, the number of lone pair and bond pairs of electrons on nitrogen atom are

4,0

0,4

2,3

0,5

Lone pairs of electrons on nitrogen $= 0$
Bond pairs of electrons on nitrogen $= 1 + 2 + 1 = 4$

Q. In NO3−​ ion, the number of lone pair and bond pairs of electrons on nitrogen atom are

4,0

0,4

2,3

0,5

Lone pairs of electrons on nitrogen =0 Bond pairs of electrons on nitrogen=1+2+1=4

Q. In $N O_{3}^{-}$ ion, the number of lone pair and bond pairs of electrons on nitrogen atom are

Lone pairs of electrons on nitrogen $= 0$
Bond pairs of electrons on nitrogen $= 1 + 2 + 1 = 4$
