How many valence electrons does cn1 have?

7 valence electrons, because carbon has 5 electrons and nitrogen can have either 3 or 5, but because it cannot fill more than 8, we must assume those added together will equal 7

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.

wher is the rest of the question
