Interpretation: The hybridization of nitrogen atom in
Concept Introduction:
Lewis dot structure is the representation which shows the bonding between atoms present in a molecule. It shows lone pairs and bond pairs that existing on each bonded atom. Lewis dot structure is also known as Lewis dot formula or electron dot structure.
The shape or geometry of molecule can be predicted with the help of hybridization and VSEPR theory. It can be checked with the below formula:
