Which from following molecules does not have lone pair of electrons in valence shell of central atom?
- A \(\mathrm{NH}_3\)
- B \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\)
- C \(\mathrm{SO}_2\)
- D \(\mathrm{BF}_3\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\mathrm{BF}_3\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
As \(\mathrm{BF}_3\) is an electron deficient molecule, so there cannot be lone pair on the central atom boron.
