what is hybridization? explain the formation of BF3 molecule
Answers
Answer:
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.

this is your answer thanks me and mark me as brainlist.
Answer:
orbital hybridisation (or hybridization) is the concept of mixing atomic orbitals into new hybrid orbitals (with different energies, shapes, etc., than the component atomic orbitals) suitable for the pairing of electrons to form chemical bonds in valence bond theory.
