Which of the following molecule has sp2 hybridization?
Correct answer: B. BF3
- A. NH3
- B. BF3
- C. H2O
- D. BeCl2
Explanation
In BF3 Boron (B) forms three sigma bonds with three fluorine (F) atoms. It utilizes one s and two p orbitals for bonding, resulting in sp2 hybridization around boron.

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
