In the ammonia (NH 3 ) molecule, the three hydrogen (H) atoms form an equilateral triangle, the distance between centers of the atoms being 16.28 X 10 -11 m, so that the center of the triangle is 9.40 X 10 -11 m from each hydrogen atom. The nitrogen (N) atom is at the apex of a pyramid, the three hydrogen constituting the base(see Fig.)The nitrogen/hydrogen distance is 10.14 X 10 -11 m and the nitrogen/hydrogen atomic mass ratio is 13.9. Locate the center of mass relative to the nitrogen atom.
