Electron pair dot arrangement for ammonia is depicted by the outer electrons surrounding the N atom.
The Lewis point structure for ammonia displays that the nitrogen atom shares one pair of e- with each of the three H atoms, resulting in a overall of 3 shared pairs of electrons.
The ammonia molecule adopts a three-sided pyramid-like shape because of the arrangement of the valence electrons according to its Electron pair dot structure.
In the Lewis dotpoint representation of ammonia, the N atom is encircled by three points, each representing a pair of connected electrons with a H atom.
