Question

Which statement is correct abound chemical bonding in BF3 molecule O The molecule is not stable and hardly exist since the number of valence electrons around a central atom in a molecule are less than 8 O The molecule is stable and can exist even though the number of valence electrons around central atom in the molecule are less than 8 The molecule is not stable and hardly exist since the number of valence electrons around an atom in a molecule are more than 8 and covalent bonding is not possible None of the above is correct​

Answer 1

The molecule is stable and can exist even though the number of valence electrons around central atom in the molecule are less than 8.

Is BF3 molecule stable or not?

BF3 molecule is a stable molecule because all the electrons present in the outermost shell of boron are covalently bonded with fluorine. Boron in BF3, three bonds is the maximum possible because boron only has 3 electrons to share.

So we can conclude that the molecule is stable and can exist even though the number of valence electrons around central atom in the molecule are less than 8.
