Why Is Clf3 T-Shaped While Bf3 Is Trigonal Planar? [Solved]
Wow, that’s cool! CIF3 is T-shaped because of the repulsion between its Ip and lp electrons. It has three valence electrons, which are all used to form bonds with three F-atoms. That means it has three bonding pairs and no lone pairs - neat!
