Answer:
The representation of two moles of ammonia is
Explanation:
- This shows that ammonia exists as diatoms. As it is known, Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and hydrogen has 1 electron in its outer shell. Thus, nitrogen requires three more electrons to complete the octet structure, while hydrogen needs only 1 electron to become a stable atom.
- To achieve this, nitrogen shares three of its electrons with three hydrogen atoms. This leaves two electrons as lone pair. Thus, an molecule contains three N-H single covalent bonds and a single pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom.
- This separate pair of electrons of one is shared with the lone pair of another molecule to form a stable compound.
