Answer:

your answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

The electron-dot structure of NH3 places one set of nonbonding electrons in the valence shell of the nitrogen atom. that means there are three bonded atoms and one single pair for a coordination number of four surrounding the nitrogen, the same occurs in water to. along with the Lewis dot structure for ammonia, NH3. the non bonding atoms are basically like hydrogen atoms the try to refuse to bond and they can't be fused unless the right conditions are met.
