Explanation:
three
Ammonia has three single covalent bonds. in ammonia gas because the electrons are shared, not transferred from one atom to another.
Nitrogen cannot really form 5 bonds, unless you count 4 covalent bonds and 1 ionic "bond". Normally a nitrogen atom forms 3 bonds, but when the nitrogen atom has a positive charge, it is deficient in an electron, so it can form an additional fourth covalent bond.
