Lewis dot arrangement in the case of ammonia is depicted by the valence electrons surrounding the nitrogen atom.
The dot point structure for NH3 exhibits that the N atom joins 1 pair of e- with each of the three hydrogen atoms, resulting in a complete of three joined pairs of electrons.
The NH3 molecule takes a trigonal pyramidal shape because of the distribution of the valence electrons according to its Lewis dot structure.
In the Lewis dotpoint representation of ammonia, the N atom is enclosed by three points, each representing a pair of connected electrons with a H atom.
