1
2.5
1.5
D.
1.5
The molecular configuration of O is as σ1s2, σ*1s2, σ2s2, σ*2s2, σ2p, 2p≈ 2p, *2p ≈ *2p
Bond order =
= = 1.5
BCl3 is a planar molecule, while NCl3 is pyramidal, because
N-Cl bond is more covalent than B-Cl bond
nitrogen atom is smaller than boron atom
B-Cl bond is more polar than NCl bond
BCl3 has no lone pair of electrons but NCl3 has a lone pair of electrons.
