The answers to the questions are as follows;

Question 1:

How would the electron configuration of nitrogen change to make a stable configuration?

Since Nitrogen has 5 Valence electrons, it needs 3 electrons to attain it's octet configuration. As such, it gains 3 electrons.

Question 2:

The quantity which determines how two atoms bond is The difference in their electronegativities.

Question 3:

Which statement best explains why the elements in Group 18 do not have electronegativity values.

This is because the elements have filled Valence levels.

Question 4:

Based on patterns in the periodic table, which ion has a stable valence electron configuration

The ion which has a stable Valence electron configuration is potassium (K) with a 1+ charge

Question 5;

The chemical formula which represents a polyatomic ion is; ClO-
