The N is having sp hybridized with the two bound pairs and the cation of the N2O5 is NO2+. Similar to this, the N2O5anion is NO3, with the N having hybridized with the three bound pairs.
Thus, the N2O5 cation is NO2+ and the N2O5 anion is NO3, and the N atom in the cation has hybridised due to the two bound pairs in the sp state.

N2O5NO2+180+NO3120
