Electron pair dot structure in the case of ammonia is shown by the valence electrons surrounding the nitrogen atom.
The Lewis dot arrangement in the case of NH3 displays that the nitrogen atom unites one pair of electrons with each of the three H atoms, resulting in a total of three joined pairs of electrons.
The NH3 molecule takes a trigonal pyramidal form due to the arrangement of the outer electrons according to its Lewis Beverage cup structure.
In the dot symbol depiction of ammonia, the N atom is surrounded by three spots, each representing a pair of united electrons with a hydrogen atom.
