In the electron dot structure of ammonia, the nitrogen atom shares one electron each from three hydrogen atoms, resulting in three shared pairs of electrons (single bonds). This allows nitrogen to achieve a stable octet configuration, while each hydrogen atom ...

Nitrogen has a combining capacity of 3, as each nitrogen atom can contribute three electrons to form three shared pairs of electrons, resulting in the formation of a triple bond.

The electronic configuration of nitrogen (atomic number 7) is 1s² 2s² 2p³.

In a diatomic molecule of nitrogen, a triple bond exists between the two nitrogen atoms.

The bonding between oxygen and hydrogen in water is characterized by single covalent bonds, as each hydrogen atom shares one electron with the oxygen atom.
