$B$ in $BF_3$

Vedclass · Answer

(A) In $BF_3$,the central atom $B$ has $3$ bond pairs and $0$ lone pairs,resulting in $sp^2$ hybridization.In $H_3O^{+}$,the central atom $O$ has $3$ bond pairs and $1$ lone pair,resulting in $sp^3$ hybridization.In $NH_3$,the central atom $N$ has $3$ bond pairs and $1$ lone pair,resulting in $sp^3$ hybridization.In $PCl_3$,the central atom $P$ has $3$ bond pairs and $1$ lone pair,resulting in $sp^3$ hybridization.Therefore,the hybridization of $B$ in $BF_3$ is different from the others.

List-$I$ (Species)	List-$II$ (Hybrid Orbitals)
$(a)$ $SF_{4}$	$(i)$ $sp^{3}d^{2}$
$(b)$ $IF_{5}$	$(ii)$ $d^{2}sp^{3}$
$(c)$ $NO_{2}^{+}$	$(iii)$ $sp^{3}d$
$(d)$ $NH_{4}^{+}$	$(iv)$ $sp^{3}$
	$(v)$ $sp$

The state of hybridization of the central atom is not the same as in the others.
