The charge of every atom is neutral. This is because the positively charged protons are cancelled out by the negatively charged electrons.

Every atom has the same number of electrons as there are protons, thus making every atom neutrally charged. Therefore, there is no charge in a nitrogen atom, or any atom to begin with. The only possibly charged things are ions.
