The molecular geometry of chlorine trifluoride (ClF₃) is T-shaped. This geometry arises from the central chlorine atom having five regions of electron density: three bonding pairs with fluorine atoms and two lone pairs. The lone pairs occupy equatorial positions in a trigonal bipyramidal arrangement, resulting in the T-shaped structure.
