Electron pair Beverage cup arrangement for NH3 is depicted by the outer electrons surrounding the N atom.
The dot dot structure for ammonia exhibits that the N atom joins one pair of electrons with each of the three hydrogen atoms, resulting in a complete of 3 joined pairs of electrons.
The ammonia molecule takes a
trigonal pyramidal shape attributed to the placement of the valence electrons according to its Electron pair dot arrangement.
In the Lewis dotpoint representation
of ammonia, the nitrogen atom is surrounded by three spots, each representing a pair of connected electrons with a hydrogen atom.
