how many single covalent bonds can nitrogen make?
Ionic bonds form when one atom donates electrons to another, creating ions that attract. Polar covalent bonds occur when electrons are shared unequally between atoms due to differences in electronegativity. Non - polar covalent bonds have equal sharing of electrons between atoms with similar electronegativities. Hydrogen bonds are weak attractions between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom and another electronegative atom. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and can form 3 single covalent bonds to achieve an octet.

Ionic: Bond formed by transfer of electrons between atoms creating ions.
Polar covalent bond: Unequal sharing of electrons between atoms due to electronegativity difference.
Nonpolar covalent bond: Equal sharing of electrons between atoms with similar electronegativities.
Hydrogen bond: Weak attraction between a hydrogen atom bonded to an electronegative atom and another electronegative atom.
