Electron pair dot structure for ammonia is depicted by the outer electrons surrounding the N atom.
The dot point structure for ammonia reveals that the N atom unites one pair of e- with each of the three hydrogen atoms, resulting in a complete of a trio shared pairs of electrons.
The ammonia molecule adopts
a trigonal pyramidal shape because of the distribution of the valence electrons according to its Lewis dot structure.
In the dot
dotpoint depiction of NH3, the nitrogen atom is encircled by three dots, each representing a pair of connected electrons with a hydrogen atom.
