The molecular geometry of OPF3 (phosphoryl trifluoride) is trigonal pyramidal. This shape arises from the phosphorus atom being the central atom bonded to one oxygen atom and three fluorine atoms, with a lone pair of electrons on the phosphorus. The presence of this lone pair causes the bond angles to be slightly less than the ideal tetrahedral angle of 109.5 degrees.
