from $sp^2$ to $sp^3$

Vedclass · Answer

In $BF_3, B$ is $sp^2$ hybridized with one empty $P_z$ orbital. The empty $P_z$ orbital of $BF_3$ can be filled by lone pair of molecules . such as $NH_3$ . When this occurs a tetrahedral molecule or ion is formed which is $sp^3$ hybridized

The formation of molecular complex $BF_3 - NH_3$ results in a change in hybridization of boron
