Dative covalent bonding in NH4+
A dative covalent bond is a shared pair of electrons which has been provided by one of the bonding atoms only.
Expansion of the octet:o unpaired electrons pair upo The maximum number of electrons that can
pair up is equivalent to the number of electrons in the outer shell.
