They form sodium chloride, a chemical compound; the formula unit is NaCl. This is not a true molecule because ionic compounds forms large lattices.
triple bonding
NaCl is an example of ionic bonding. Sodium (Na) donates an electron to chlorine (Cl), forming positively charged sodium ion and negatively charged chlorine ion that are held together by electrostatic forces.
Three bonding pairs, thus a pyramid.
In BF3, there are 3 bonding electron pairs and 0 non-bonding electron pairs. Boron has 3 valence electrons, and each fluorine contributes one electron for bonding, giving a total of 3 bonding pairs in the molecule.
Oxygen has two non-bonding pairs of electrons.

In phosphine (PH3), there are three lone pairs and three bonding pairs.
Repulsion between lone pairs is stronger because they are closer to the nucleus and repel more strongly than bonding pairs. Lone pairs have less electron-cloud shielding compared to bonding pairs, resulting in increased repulsion. This leads to lone pairs pushing each other apart more forcefully than bonding pairs do.

Ionic bonding. Salt, NaCl, contains Na+ and Cl- ions.
