NH3 =====> 8... Because H is in group 1 so it has 3(1)
and N is in group 5 so 5 valence electrons...
you add 3(1) + 5 = 8 valence electrons... TADA !

Which two of the following compounds have a tetrahedral arrangement of all the electrons about the central atom MgCl2 NH3 CO2 H2O?
NH3 and H2O have a tetrahedral arrangement of all the electrons.
Is NH3 ionic or covalent and why?
Covalent because they share electrons
What is the covalent compound of NH3?
NH3 is ammonia. If you mean can NH3 form covalent compounds the answer is yes, in the cases where it acts as Lewis base donating electrons to a Lewis acid (electron acceptor)
Does NH3 follow octect rule?
Of course it does obey.There are 8 electrons around Nitrogen.
How many bonding and non-bonding electrons does nitrogen have?
In order to have a net charge of zero, nitrogen can have three bonds. it will often have more or less than that number with a charge on the atom. Example: Ammonia (NH3) versus Ammonium (NH4+)
How many lone pairs of electrons exist on the central atom in ammonia NH3?
ONE!

NH3 and H2O have a tetrahedral arrangement of all the electrons.
Is NH3 ionic or covalent and why?
Covalent because they share electrons
Does NH3 have two sets of lone pair of electrons?
no, one
What is the covalent compound of NH3?
NH3 is ammonia. If you mean can NH3 form covalent compounds the answer is yes, in the cases where it acts as Lewis base donating electrons to a Lewis acid (electron acceptor)
Which molecules has one lone pair of electrons CH4 or h2o or hci or nh3?
nitrogen aton in NH3 has one lone pair of electron
Why nh3 is good complexing agent?
it has a LONE pair of electrons that is sterically unhindered
What contains only one unshared pair of valence electrons a-h2o b-nh3 c-ch4 d-nacl e-bf3?
NH3
How many electrons does ammonia's atom have in its K shell L shell M shell and N shell?
Ammonia is a molecule (NH3) and not an atom.
Does NH3 follow octect rule?
Of course it does obey.There are 8 electrons around Nitrogen.
How many moles of NH3 is in 23g of NH3?
Atomic mass of NH3 is 17.So there are 1.353mol.
Is NH3 Ammonia a strong acid?
bcz it has lone pair of electrons on nitrogen atom tht is y it can donate an electron pair so it is lewis base
