Answer:

10 nitrogens

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 is the number of nitrogens in a molecule of N2. There are 2 of them.

The 5 is a whole different critter. It tells you that it was part of an equation and it took 5 molecules of Nitrogen to balance the equation. You only see numbers to the right of a molecule when the molecule is in an equation.

5 (2)=10
