This butterfly rule is applicable only for simple molecules like
BeF2, BF3, H2O, NH3, H2S ....... (ep-rule)
CH4, C2H6, C2H2 ................... (pi-rule)
Here, ep = electron pair = valence electron + shared electron
2
For N atom of Ammonia, valence electron = 5
shared electron = 3 (shared from 3 H atoms)
Electron pair (ep) = (5+3)/2 = 4 pair = sp3 hybridization
Thus, N-atom of ammonia is sp3 hybridized
