Polarity of Ammonia (NH3)

Ammonia (NH3) has three single covalent bonds formed between the central nitrogen (N) atom and the three hydrogen (H) atoms. Lewis structure confirms a pair of nonbonding electrons on the nitrogen. Lone pairs affect polarity and contribute to the localized negative charges on the atom. The lone pair on nitrogen exerts outward force on the … Continue reading Polarity of Ammonia (NH3)
