Vedclass · Answer

(D) $1$. $BF_{3}$ is a trigonal planar molecule with a dipole moment of $0$. This statement is correct.$2$. $B_{2}H_{6}$ (diborane) is a classic example of an electron-deficient molecule due to $3c-2e^{-}$ bonds. This statement is correct.$3$. Hydroboration-oxidation involves the syn-addition of $H$ and $OH$ across the double bond following anti-Markovnikov regioselectivity. This statement is correct.$4$. $BF_{3}$ has a trigonal planar shape ($sp^{2}$ hybridization),whereas $BrF_{3}$ has a $T$-shaped geometry ($sp^{3}d$ hybridization with two lone pairs). Therefore,they have different shapes. The statement claiming they have the same shape is incorrect.
