Explain the formation of NH3 (ammonia) covalent bonding
Answers
Answer:
Ammonia is formed from 3 atoms of Hydrogen and 1 atom of Nitrogen. Nitrogen has 5 Valence Electrons ( 2,5 ) in its outer shell, so the valence electrons of 3 hydrogen atoms gets shared and it forms Ammonia through Co-valent bonding.

Hope it helps :)
Explanation:
Explain the formation of NH3 (ammonia) covalent bonding:
The atomic number of nitrogen is 7, so it will have 7 protons and 7 electrons.
two of its electrons are occupied by 1st orbit while remaining five electrons are occupied by 2nd orbit now nitrogen required three electrons to fulfill its valence electrons on the other hand hydrogen required 1 electron to complete its duplet since it has one electron in 1st shell.
nitrogen share its three electrons with three hydrogen to form ammonia molecule.
