Explanation:

Figure C is the correct Lewis dot structure of Ammonia.

The lewis structure of ammonia is the structure C.

Given:

The molecule ammonia NH_3

To find:

The correct Lewis structure of ammonia.

Solution:

Number of the nitrogen atoms in ammonia = 1

Number of the hydrogen atoms in ammonia = 3

The valence electrons in nitrogen atom = 5

The valence electrons in hydrogen atom = 1

Total valence electrons in ammonia molecule:

[tex]=1\times 5+3\times 1 =8[/tex]

The total valence electrons = 8

Now draw the skeletal structure of ammonia and distribute the 8 valence electrons in such a way so that octet of each atom is complete as shown in the image attached.

So, the lewis structure of ammonia is the structure C.
