Hybridization is a phenomenon of intermixing of atomic orbitals of almost equal energy.. to form Hybridized orbitals!
➡The chemical name of NH3 is Ammonia
➡Ammonia is formed by one nitrogen and 3 hydrogen atoms
➡In NH3, Nitrogen is the central atom..So, hybridization takes place in nitrogen
Let us know the EC of the both atoms

➡ There are three unpaired electrons in Nitrogen atom.. in the three Orbitals (2P x¹ y¹ z¹)
➡ Here, 2s and 2P x¹ y¹ z¹ orbitals undergoes Sp³ hybridization and forms 4 Sp³ hybridized orbitals
➡ Among 4, One orbital is completely filled. So, only 3 orbitals participates in bonding
➡ There is only one unpaired electron in Hydrogen
➡ Hence, three Hydrogens are required for bonding with Nitrogen
➡ The three Hydrogens, make bond with the nitrogen.. and the bonds formed are, three
Sp³-s bonds
➡ Due, to the lone pair-bond pair repulsion bond angle decreases to
107°31'
➡ Ammonia molecule has the Triagonal pyramidal shape
