Does Nitrogen gain or lose electrons?

Nitrogen, on the other hand is in group V and has five valence electrons, so it needs  to gain three electrons to get a full valence shell.

Explanation:

Thus the most stable state for nitrogen ions is the N3-ion.

explanation:

let the different atoms be x and y. each with four protons and same mass will be represented as follows.

mass number is number of protons + number of neutrons.

            and  

since, it is given that one has a negative charge while the other is neutral. therefore, there will be increase in number of protons and the atom will be represented as follows.

according to periodic table, mass number of beryllium is 9 and it has atomic number 4 so, the atoms will be and .  

the protons and neutrons will be located inside the nucleus whereas the electrons will be revolving around the nucleus.
