Question

The number of hybrid orbitals and atomic orbitals involved in BF3 respectively​

Answer 1

Answer:

BF3 is an sp2 hybridization. It is sp2 for this molecule because one π (pi) bond is needed for the double bond between the Boron, and just three σ bonds are produced per Boron atom. The atomic S and P – orbitals in Boron outer shell mix to form three equivalent hybrid orbitals of sp2.

Name of the Molecule: Boron Trifluoride

Bond Angle: 120°

Hybridization Type: sp2

Geometry: Trigonal Planar
