Interpretation:
The fact that the nitrogen atom in ammonia is
Concept introduction:
Lewis structure is a representation of a chemical formula of substance with valence electrons of atoms. The Lewis structures are also called electron dot structures. In the Lewis structure, electrons are denoted by dots. Only the valence electrons are presented as dots in the Lewis structure.
