Vsepr Diagram Of Bf3. Now we know that the non polarity of bf3 boron trifluoride is due to its highly symmetrical trigonal planar geometry as predicted by the vsepr valence shell electron pair repulsion theory which other molecules like h2o doesnt have. Approximately 2300 4500 tonnes of boron trifluoride are produced every year.
The fluorine atoms are positioned at the vertices of an equilateral triangle. The vsepr model three pairs of electrons bf3 120o e28093 trigonal planar. We can use vespr theory to predict a trigonal pyrimidal shape for the molecule pf3 because of its ax3e status.
Triangular and in one plane with bond angles of 120.
Approximately 2300 4500 tonnes of boron trifluoride are produced every year. To draw a lewis structure first of all add electrons and draw the connectivities. This theory basically says that bonding and non bonding electron pairs of the central atom in a molecule will repel push away from. The vsepr shape of the molecule pf3 is trigonal pyrimidal.
