Does BCl3 has idealized bond angle?

No, BCl3 does not have an idealized bond angle. The central boron atom in BCl3 has a trigonal planar molecular geometry, which leads to bond angles of approximately 120 degrees due to electron repulsion around the boron atom.


BCl3 H2O NH3 and PCl3 which is non-polar?

BCl3 is non-polar. The B-Cl bonds are polar but the molecule is not. You should review shapes of molecules. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion, VSEPR. Applying VSEPR on BCl3, we can find out that the shape of the molecule is trigonal planar. Due to its geometry, the bonds cancel out.


Why BCL3 is Lewis acid?

BCL3 is a Lewis acid because it can accept an electron pair from a Lewis base. Boron in BCl3 has an incomplete octet, making it electron deficient and capable of accepting an electron pair to complete its octet, giving it a positive charge.


What shape does BCl3 have?

BCl3 has a trigonal planar shape, with the boron atom at the center and three chlorine atoms symmetrically arranged around it, each separated by 120 degrees. It only has three electron pairs around the central boron atom, resulting in a flat, triangular molecular geometry.
