Please find below the solution for your asked question-
- Ammonia is made up of nitrogen and hydrogen elements.
- The atomic number of Nitrogen is 7 and hydrogen is 1
- The number of electrons in the outermost shell of nitrogen is 5 and it required 3 electrons to complete its octet.
- While hydrogen requires 1 more electron to complete its outermost shell.
- So 1 atom of nitrogen shares its electron with three hydrogen atom via a covalent bond.
