Question

Draw the Lewis structure for ammonia, NH3. Include lone pairs. In the Lewis structure:_______.

Answer 1

Answer:

4) All of the above.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering the attached picture wherein the Lewis dot structure is drawn, we realize that the nitrogen has a lone par of electrons, whereas the other three valence electrons are bonded with the three hydrogen atoms in order to obey the octet rule and form three bonding pairs for nitrogen and one bonding pair per hydrogen. Therefore, answer is 4) All of the above.

Regards.
