NH3 Lewis Structure Geometry and Hybridization
Electron pair dot arrangement for NH3 is shown by the outer electrons surrounding the N atom. The Lewis dot structure for NH3 unveils that the nitrogen atom joins a solitary pair of e- with each of the three hydrogen atoms, resulting in a total of a trio joined pairs of electrons. The NH3 molecule takes a trigonal pyramidal shape because of the distribution of the valence electrons according to its Electron pair dot arrangement. In the Lewis symbol representation of NH3, the N atom is surrounded by three dots, each representing a pair of joined electrons with a H atom.
