Lewis dot structure in the case of ammonia is portrayed by the outer electrons surrounding the N atom.
The dot dot arrangement in the case of NH3 reveals that the nitrogen atom shares one pair of electrons with each of the three hydrogen atoms, resulting in a total of 3 shared pairs of electrons.
The NH3 molecule adopts a three-sided
pyramid-like form because of the arrangement of the outer electrons according to its Electron pair dot structure.
In the Lewis symbol depiction of NH3, the
nitrogen atom is encircled by three dots, each representing a pair of joined electrons with a hydrogen atom.
