Which of the following molecules has trigonal planar geometry?

  • A
    $\mathrm{IF}_3$
  • B
    $\mathrm{PCl}_3$
  • C
    $\mathrm{NH}_3$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\mathrm{BF}_3$

Solution

$\mathrm{IF}_3$ has bent-T geometery Figure $\mathrm{PCl}_3$ has pyramidal geometery.Figure $\mathrm{NH}_3$ has pyramidal geometry.Figure $\mathrm{BF}_3$ has trigonal planar geometry.Figure
