For Nitrogen (1s² 2s² 2p³):

The 2p sub-level has 3 electrons.

Since 2p has 3 orbitals, each electron occupies a separate orbital before pairing.

Nitrogen has 3 unpaired electrons

The number of unpaired electrons in the nitrogen sub-levels can be determined using the electron configuration of nitrogen, which is 1s² 2s² 2p³.

In the 2p sublevel of nitrogen, there are three electrons (2p³). Since there are three electrons in the 2p sublevel and each orbital in the 2p sublevel can hold a maximum of two electrons (with opposite spins), one of the three electrons will be unpaired.

So, the correct answer is:

The unpaired electrons for sub-level of nitrogen should be 2
