NH3

Frequency Analysis

From the 3N-6 rule I expect 6 vibrational modes. Modes 5 and 6 are degenerate, as are 2 and 3. Modes 1, 2 and 3 are "bending" vibrations and modes 4,5 and 6 are "bond stretching". Mode 4 is highly symmetric, mode 1 is the "umbrella" mode and I would expect to see 3 bands in an experimental spectrum of gaseous ammonia.

Charge Analysis

The charge distribution generated assigned charges of 0.375 to the Hydrogen atoms and a charge of -1.125 to the Nitrogen atom. This aligns with my expectations - Nitrogen is the more electronegative atom.
