there are 4 atoms in aluminum chloride
Answer:
trigonal pyramidal
Explanation:
In NF3, the nitrogen atom is sp3 hybridized. Now we must remember that according to the VSEPR theory, the number of electron pairs in the valence shell of the central atom in a molecule determines its shape.
Here, the nitrogen atom is the central atom and its outermost shell is surrounded by four electron pairs - one lone pair and three bond pairs. This means that it has a tetrahedral electron pair geometry.
However, due to the lone pair, the three fluorine atoms are arranged in a trigonal pyramidal geometry. Hence the correct shape of the molecule is trigonal pyramidal.
I know for a fact that a good conductor transfer electricity well,.. so my guess would be that the answer is true.
