What are the valancies of Nitride,

nitrite and nitrade Respectively?

The chemical formula of Nitride is N3- hence its valency is Nitride is 3.
The chemical formula of Nitrite is NO2- hence its valency is 1 and the valency of Nitrate is also 1 as its chemical formula is NO3-.

The nitride ion is N3-, three nitrogen atoms bound by three extra electrons to

form one molecule of nitrogen. nitrite ion is NO2-. One nitrogen atom with two oxygen atoms that share an electron to form a molecule of nitrogen dioxide. The nitrate ion is NO32-. The nitrate ion carries a formal charge of negative two, where each oxygen carries a 2/3 charge while the nitrogen carries a +1 charge.
