NH₃, or ammonia, is classified as a molecular crystal due to its molecular composition and the intermolecular forces acting on it. It features a trigonal pyramidal arrangement of one nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms, held together by hydrogen bonds. The properties of ammonia as a molecular solid include lower melting and boiling points compared to ionic solids.
