Question

there are three hydrogen atom and the nitrogen atom in the molecule of ammonia​

Answer 1

Explanation:

An example of a covalent compound is ammonia. The chemical formula of ammonia is NH 3start subscript, 3, end subscript, which tells us that in a single molecule of ammonia, there is one nitrogen atom, and three hydrogen atoms.

Answer 2

Answer:

Ammonia (NH3) is made up of one atom of nitrogen and three atoms of hydrogen

Atomic number of N = 7

Electronic configuration = 2, 5

Atomic number of H = 1

Electronic configuration = 1

So hydrogen needs 1 more electron to complete its duplet and nitrogen needs three more electrons to complete its octet

Hence three hydrogen atoms will combine with nitrogen to form ammonia
