315 Covalent Bonding Drawing Lewis Chemistry LibreTextsLewis Beverage cup arrangement for ammonia is portrayed by the outer electrons surrounding the nitrogen atom.
The dot dot structure for ammonia unveils that the N atom unites 1 pair of electrons with each of the three H atoms, resulting in a overall of three united pairs of electrons.
The ammonia molecule adopts a trigonal pyramidal form due
to the distribution of the outer electrons according to its Electron pair dot structure.
In the Lewis symbol representation of ammonia, the N atom is enclosed by three spots, each representing a pair
of connected electrons with a H atom.
