the ammoniun ion has a tetrahedral molecular shape. It has four groups of electrons surrounding the nitrogen atom. The fact that the ion has an overall charge does not affect the shape.
pyramidal
Ammonia is NH3.
17 g/mol is the molecular mass of ammonia NH3.
Ammonia is a molecular compound. The hydrogen atoms share electrons with the nitrogen atom.
Ammonia and nitrogen are two distinct compounds, not a single compound that would have a molecular formula.
pyramidal
pyramidal
The shape would be pyramidal because of the lone pair nitrogen has
Ammonia is a molecular compound and not ionic.
Ammonia is NH3.
17 g/mol is the molecular mass of ammonia NH3.
Ammonia is a molecular compound. The hydrogen atoms share electrons with the nitrogen atom.
Ammonia and nitrogen are two distinct compounds, not a single compound that would have a molecular formula.
Ammonia is molecular (or covalent) compound because the bond between N and H in ammonia is formed by the sharing of electrons between N and H.
NH3
The molecular mass of ammonia (NH3) is 18.03 grams/mole
At first glance, you may assume the NH2- ion takes the form of a tetrahedral shape similar to CH4 or ammonia; however, there are two lone electron pairs. Therefore, like the shape of water (H2O), the shape can be called angular or V-shaped.
