how does Nitrogen have only 1 lone pair? :/

Look... There are total 7 electrons in the other shell...so it donates two pairs of electrons to sulfur present on both the sides... Remaining are 3 .. Lone pair means it should be 2 electrons, right? So therefore now ONE lone pair is present...althoug there's one more electron left...I hope I found some sense..

I think you meant 5 outer electrons, and it donates 1 each to the sulfur on both sides. Leaving 3 left. :)

how do we know which chloride reacts and which dissolves? :/ and ii why can't it be redox
Well our teacher gave us the table showing which Chlorides reacts and which dissolves
All Basic compounds dissolved in waters forming free ions in this case Na+ & Cl-
While all others dissolves
And the last question I dunno sorry.

that means all basic compounds will dissolve while others will react right?

What is the difference between Structural/ displayed/ skeletal formula for a Cyclic compound such as benzene?
