Question

The geometry and type of hybrid orbital present around the central atom in BF3 is (A) linear, sp  (B) trigonal planar, sp2  (C) tetrahedral, sp3  (D) pyramidal, sp3

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

BF3 molecule is trigonal planar with sp2 hybridisation.

Q. The geometry and type of hybrid orbital present around the central atom in $B F_{3}$ is

linear, $s p$

trigonal planar, $s p^{2}$

tetrahedral, $s p^{3}$

pyramidal, $s p^{3}$

$B F_{3}$ molecule is trigonal planar with $s p^{2}$ hybridisation.
