The Lewis dot structure for NH3 starts with an N atom connected on three sides with a dash, each to an H atom. The N atom then has two dots on the unconnected side.

They are called Lewis Dot Diagrams because of the man who came up with the idea, Lewis Gilbert
There is none. Lewis dot structures can only be drawn for individual compounds and elements. Coca Cola is a mixture of many substances.
Oxygen gas has the molecular formula of O2 and nitrogen gas is N2. The Lewis dot structures that represent both diatomic gases are::O=O: :N:::N:
Search http://image.google.com for lewis structure for nh3 and you will find numerous alternative possibilities, with explanations.
Lewis Dot structures are known as electron dot structures. It does matter where the dots are placed. The dots should be placed to reflect the bond angles of the molecules. They should be placed in pairs according to the valence electrons.?æ

Lewis structures are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule. They are also called Lewis dot diagrams, electron dot diagrams, and electron dot structures. See the link below for Lewis structure.
Lewis dot structures.
it is because they are bums and are weird
They can also be called Lewis Dot Structures or Diagrams, named after a scientist names Gilbert Norton Lewis
yes, diatomic and polyatomic ions can both be expressed in electron dot diagrams, or as your reffer to them; Lewis structures.
Lewis dot structures show how an atom's electrons work together in a certain molecule. They also show what a certain molecule will look like.
Lewis dot structures are influenced by octet rule, when the electrons increase or decrease to fit into noble gas. Hence the chemical bonding in Lewis structure change.
See the image of the Lewis dot structure of water in the "sources and related links" section below.
Lewis dot diagrams represent electron distribution within a molecular compound. Lewis dot structures are a simple way to show how electron pairs are involved in bonding and which atoms are being bonded in a compound.
