The image below shows two nitrogen atoms. For these two atoms to form a stable molecule, N2, how many electrons would have to be part of covalent bonds

There are six electrons in the covalent bonds.

Two N atoms would be :N:· + ·:N:
An N₂ molecule would be :N:::N: or :N≡N:
This gives each N atom an octet of eight electrons in its valence shell.
