Because they wouldn't be balanced without three hydrogens. Nitrogen (N) has a charge of 3-, and Hydrogen (H) has a charge of 1+. With only two hydrogen atoms, the charge would be -1, not balanced.

Is NH3 an empirical formula?
Yes. NH3 is both the empirical formula and the molecular formula for ammonia.
What is the conjugate base of nh3?
NH2- is the conjugate base of ammonia.
How many moles are in 1.2 X 10.3 grams of ammonia NH2?
Ammonia is NH3 (not NH2) so its molar mass is 17 g/mol. In 1.2*10^3 g there are1.2*10^3(g) / 17 (g/mol) = (70.6 =) 71 mol NH3.
What is the name of a substance with the formula NH3?
When attached to a carbon chain, it is called an amine and when attached to carbonyl carbon it is called an amide as anion NH2 it accures as sodamide NaNH2, which is prepared by adding sodium metal in liquid ammonia does not occur on its own.
Is NH4 linear?
No. First of all, NH2- is an ion, not a molecule. Second, it has a bent geometry, similar to that of a water molecule.

Does a nitrogenoes base contain oxygen?
The only nitrogen containing base known to me is ammonia (and the derivative amines): NH3, R-NH2, R2NH.NO Oxygen in it!
What is the common name for NH2 2CO?
ammonia Edit: NH3 is ammonia not NH2 also NH4 is ammonium. Anything with a base of Nitrogen that isn't ammonia or ammonium, is considered an amine group. These are nitrogen bonded to 2 hydrgens and something else (typically oxygen, carbon, or another nitrogen), but it can bond to other elements.
Do the kidneys remove the NH2 group from amino acids and convert the resulting ammonia to urea?
Ammonia is NH3, but otherwise yes. Typically the left over hydrocarbon chain is metabolised to a carbohydrate.
NH3 is the formula for what common base?
The name of the common base NH3 is ammonia.
What are the two ways to prepare ammonia?
Two laboratory methods are:2 NH4Cl + 2 CaO = CaCl2 + Ca(OH)2 + 2 NH3(NH2)CO + Ca(OH)2 = CaCO3 + 2 NH3
What is the Formulae for ammonia?
NH3the chemical formula for ammonia is NH3.
Which compound can act as both a bronsted-lowry acid and a bronstey-lowry base?
Ammonia (NH3) --> can become NH2- or NH4+ Water (H2O) --> can become OH- or H3O+
