Answer:
The hybridization of BCl3 now occurs where one 2s and two 2p orbitals of boron will take part in the process to form three half-filled sp2 hybrid orbitals. ... Three σsp-p bonds are formed between boron's half-filled sp2 hybrid orbitals and three chlorine atoms.
Name of the Molecule: Boron Trichloride
