Question

Specify the coordinate geometry around and hyridilization present about the central atom in `BF_(3)` is:
A. `N`: Tetrahedral, `sp^(3)`, `B`: Tetrahedral, `sp^(3)`
B. `N:` pyramidal, `sp^(3),B:` pyramidal, `sp^(3)`
C. `N:`pyramidal,`sp^(3),B:` Planar, `sp^(3)`
D. `N:`Pyramidal, `sp^(3)`, `B:` Tetrahedral `sp^(3)`

Answer 1

Correct Answer - A
In complex `[H_(3)NtoBF_(3)]`, both `N` and `B` attains `sp^(3)`-hybridisation and acquires tetrahadral geometry.
