In NF3, the Nitrogen atom has 5 valence electrons and each Fluorine atom shares 1 more electron with Nitrogen. That makes 8 electrons (4 pairs of electrons) around Nitrogen. Betweent the four electron pairs, 3 pairs are bonded with Fluorine and the other one is a lone pair.
Therefore around the central atom Nitrogen, there are three Fluorine atoms and a lone electron pair.
The atoms sharing the electron pairs will spread out around the central atom.

The central atom of ammonia is nitrogen and it has 3 bonding pairs and a lone pair around, hence it undergoes sp3 hybridization. The central atom of boron trifluoride is the boron atom, and around it has only three bonding pairs. So it hybridizes as sp2.
The atoms sharing the electron pairs will spread out around the central atom.
The atoms sharing the electron pairs will spread out around the central atom.
The electrons pairs around the central atom arrange themselves as far a part as possible so the other atoms become attached around the central atom having specific orientation so molecules have a particular geometry.
It is five because there is a total of five electron pairs around the bromine atom.
No. Molecules are made of atoms, not the other way around. E.G. A MOLECULE OF WATER IS MADE OF 2 HYDROGEN ATOMS BONDED TO A CENTRAL OXYGEN ATOM. SO HERE, 1 MOLECULE HAS 3 ATOMS.
The AXE chemical formula is used to format the shape of molecules according to the VSEPR theory. A is the central atom, X is a bond between the central atom and another atom, and E is a lone electron pair.

With the 5 activation groups, the hybridization of the central atom in the molecules CF4 Cl2CO CH4 CS2 SO2 FCN would be sp3d.
its electrons that are found in the shells around an atom.
Nothing happens to the atoms within the molecules,but the molecules move around slower.
The atoms sharing the electron pairs will spread out around the central atom.
