The correct answer is B because using Lewis dot theorem we have the nitrogen as the central atom forming a 3 hydrogen atom bonded to it, all those hydrogen complete their duplet configuration while nitrogen complete octet configuration with just a lone pair to forming TRIGONAL PYRAMIDAL
Now to bond with the H+ we see that it has lost its electron and needs to complete its duplet then the central nitrogen with a lone pair donated the electron to it so that it forms a stable NH4+
Thanks
