Lewis dot arrangement in the case of ammonia is a representation of the valence electrons surrounding the N atom.
The Lewis point arrangement for NH3 displays that the nitrogen atom connects 1 pair of e- with each of the three hydrogen atoms, resulting in a overall of 3 connected pairs of electrons.
The NH3 molecule takes a three-sided pyramid-like form attributed to the placement of the
valence electrons according to its Electron pair Beverage cup structure.
In the Lewis symbol depiction of NH3, the N atom is enclosed by three points, each representing a pair of connected electrons with a H atom.
