Question

Explain the formation of Boron trifloride with a neat diagram? ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

BF3 has a boron atom with three outer-shell electrons in its ground state and three fluorine atoms containing seven outer electrons. ... In short, Boron needs 3 hybridized orbitals to make bonds with 3 atoms of F where the 2pz orbitals get overlapped with these hybridized sp2 orbitals and bonds are formed.

Molecular Formula: BF3

Hybridization Type: sp2

Geometry: Trigonal Planar
