Electron pair dot structure for ammonia is portrayed by the valence electrons surrounding the N atom.
The dot point structure for NH3 reveals that
the N atom joins a solitary pair of electrons with each of the three H atoms, resulting in a total of 3 united pairs of electrons.
The NH3 molecule adopts a three-sided pyramid-like shape because of the arrangement of the outer electrons according to its Lewis Beverage cup structure.
In the Lewis symbol depiction of ammonia, the nitrogen atom is encircled by three points, each representing a pair of joined electrons with a H atom.
