Yes that would be true

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Nitrogen has five valence electrons, therefore, it needs three more valence electrons to complete its octet. In a diatomic molecule of Nitrogen, each atom shares three electrons to the bond, that is, three pairs of electrons are shared between the two atoms. This is called a triple bond, which is a covalent bond.
