Xenon difluoride, XeF2. Xenon is a noble gas, and as such has a full outer shell of eight electrons; as per the octet rule, it doesn't usually form chemical bonds. However, highly reactive nonmetals such as fluorine can induce it to do so.

Which one doesn't follow the octet rule nh3 cf4 bcl3 ash3 hcl?
Boron trichloride does not follow the octet rule. Boron does not allow the eight required electrons in the outer shell.
How many lone pairs are on the central atom in BCl3?
0
What is the formula for the compound boron chloride?
BCl3 is the formula for Boron Chloride. As a matter of interest it does not obey the octet rule. It is also called a Lewis Acid.
Does BCl3 violate the octet rule?
Yes the sulfur needs to have two more electrons to fill the octet, and chlorine only needs one. So there are two chlorines to give sulfur one electron. The whole molecule is covalently bonded so the electrons are shared between the chlorines and the sulfur so that both the elements octets are filled.
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.
What are the shapes of BCl3?
there is only one answer for BCl3 and that is trigonal planer
