Lewis dot arrangement for ammonia is illustrated by the outer electrons surrounding
the nitrogen atom.
The dot point arrangement in the case of NH3 exhibits that the nitrogen atom unites a solitary pair of electrons with each of the three
hydrogen atoms, resulting in a complete of 3 joined pairs of electrons.
The NH3 molecule takes a three-sided pyramid-like form because of the placement of the valence electrons according to its Lewis Beverage cup arrangement.
In the Lewis symbol depiction of ammonia, the nitrogen atom is enclosed by three points, each representing a pair of united electrons with a hydrogen atom.
