Question

bond polarity of bf3
GPT 3.5
The molecule BF3 (boron trifluoride) has a trigonal planar shape. Each fluorine atom is bonded to the central boron atom by a single covalent bond. Since the fluorine atom has a higher electronegativity than boron, the electron density in the bond is shifted towards the fluorine atoms, creating partial negative charges on the fluorine atoms and a partial positive charge on the boron atom. Therefore, the molecule BF3 is polar, with the boron atom acting as the positive pole and the fluorine atoms acting as the negative poles.
