  4. So if we take a look at nitrogen here, what you 'll notice is we have thre available for bonding, - and we already have our lone pair & one of our orbitals is already filled up.
  5. So it looks a lot less messy if we just draw our Lewis structure like this for h c n, where we have h bonded to c triple bonded to n, and then a lone pair on the nitrogen there.
