Current Question (ID: 8038)

Question:
The $\text{BF}_3$ is a planar molecule whereas $\text{NF}_3$ is pyramidal because:
Options:
  • 1. $\text{B} - \text{F}$ bond is more polar than $\text{N} - \text{F}$ bond.
  • 2. Boron atom is bigger than nitrogen atom.
  • 3. Nitrogen is more electronegative than boron.
  • 4. $\text{BF}_3$ has no lone pair but $\text{NF}_3$ has a lone pair of electrons. (Correct)
Solution:
$\text{HINT: Both have different hybridization}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $\text{Hybridization of given compound is as follows:}$ $\text{BF}_3 = \text{sp}^2$ $\text{NF}_3 = \text{sp}^3$ $\text{BF}_3$ has trigonal planar geometry due to $\text{sp}^2$ hybridization and no lone pairs on the central boron atom. $\text{NF}_3$ has trigonal pyramidal geometry due to $\text{sp}^3$ hybridization and one lone pair of electrons on the central nitrogen atom. The lone pair causes repulsion with bonding pairs, leading to a distorted tetrahedral geometry (pyramidal shape). $\text{This explains why BF}_3 \text{ is planar and NF}_3 \text{ is pyramidal.}$
