Formula: BBr3
BBr3
Boron tribromide.
Formula: BBr3
This compound id BBr3 - boron tribromide.
The atomic mass of boron is 10.811 while that of bromine is 79.904. Thus the ratio of the mass of bromine to the total mass of boron tribromide must be: 3(79.904)/[3(79.904) + 10.811] = 0.9568. The required mass of BBr3 thus is 11.8/0.9568 = 12.3 g, to the justified number of significant digits.
It's trigonal planar, with Boron in the middle and sigle bonds to Hydrogen and both Fluorines. Note that Boron is an electron-deficient atom (it DOES NOT follow octet) and this is why it only makes three bonds
What is the electronic geometry of Bi_3? Enter the ... Thus, the total number of electrons in the molecule will be 24. There are no lone pairs in boron. Three electron domains are thus present in this molecule. Therefore, the electronic geometry of B I 3 is trigonal planar.
