Which molecules has one lone pair of electrons CH4 or h2o or hci or nh3?
nitrogen aton in NH3 has one lone pair of electron
Why nh3 is good complexing agent?
it has a LONE pair of electrons that is sterically unhindered
Is NH3 Ammonia a strong acid?
bcz it has lone pair of electrons on nitrogen atom tht is y it can donate an electron pair so it is lewis base
Does NH3 have double bonds?
No, Nitrogen forms single bonds with the Hydrogens and has a lone pair of electrons attached to it. You should already know that hydrogen can only form single bonds. Eg: H | H-N-H . . the two dots represent the lone pair of electrons. ;)
Substances with lone pairs on central atom?
Ammonia NH3 one lone pair on Nitrogen, Water H2O two lone pairs on Oxygen.

Does NH3 have lone pair electrons?
The lone pair of electrons in the ammonia molecule is located in the outermost electron shell of the ammonia molecule. This will enable it to easily form a bond with any compound that it is mixed with.
What is responsible for the bent nature of NH3?
There are 3 bonding pairs of electrons N - H and one lone pair . The repulsion forces between lone pair -lone pair is > lone pair -bond pair > bond pair - bond pair. So the lone pair causes distortion from a perfect tetrahedron
How many lone pairs of electrons exist on the central atom in ammonia?
One lone pair. The central atom is N (nitrogen) which has 5 valence electrons. Three of them are shared with 3 hydrogen atoms, leaving 2 electrons (1 lone pair) on the N.
What is a pair bond?
two electrons that from a bond as opposed to two electrons that are lone - giving the phrase lone pair. So on the molecule NH3 there are 3 bond pairs of electrons on the N-H bonds and one lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen.

Is nh3 a nucleophile?
Yes it is a nuclephile.It has a lone pair
Does a lone pair consist of a nonbinding pair of electrons?
Yes. Ammonia or triethylamine would be classic molecules to illustrate. With ammonia - NH3, the nitrogen has 5 valence electrons in total. Three of those electrons share with 3 electrons from 3 hydrogens to form 3 covalent N-H bonds. The other two valence electrons are a lone pair. They do not take part in bonding.
Why bf3 and nh3 have different shapes?
BF3 is trigonal planar because it has 3 bonds and no lone pairs of electrons.NH3 has three bonds and one lone pair of electrons and is trigonal pyramidal.
Does NH3 have double bonds?
No, Nitrogen forms single bonds with the Hydrogens and has a lone pair of electrons attached to it. You should already know that hydrogen can only form single bonds. Eg: H | H-N-H . . the two dots represent the lone pair of electrons. ;)
In AlCl3.NH3 nitrogen an electronegative atom donates a lone pair to electropositive aluminum to complete aluminum's octet. How is that possible?
It is possible because of dative/ coordinate bonding. Basically, because the aluminium atom in AlCl3 is electron deficient and the nitrogen atom in NH3 has a lone pair of electrons, N donates one pair of lone electrons to Al for sharing in order for Al to obtain a stable octet configuration. Hence a dative/ coordinate bond is formed.
