Trigonal Pyramidal resulting from 3 bonded pairs and 1 non-bonded pair
The electron geometry ("Electronic Domain Geometry") for PF3 is tetrahedral. The molecular geometry, on the other hand, is Trigonal Pyramidal.
sturctural shape is how the top half of an egg looks strange but the shape puts equal amounts of weight at almostevery point in the structure in sort of a ring shape. therefor relating structural shape to strength. by cat
Earth's shape is oblate spheroid.
No. A five sided shape is a pentagon. A hexagon has six sides.
Something that takes the shape of the container it is in. E.g. Water takes the shape of the container which it is in.
The shape of PF3 is trigonal bipyramidal. The geometric diagram determines this shape. Its electron domain geometry and molecular geometry are also the same.
In phosphorus trifluoride (PF3), the bond angle is approximately 97 degrees. This angle is slightly less than the ideal tetrahedral bond angle of 109.5 degrees due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the phosphorus atom, which repels the bonding pairs and causes a distortion in the molecular geometry. As a result, PF3 adopts a trigonal pyramidal shape.
The chemical formula for phosphorus trifluoride is PF3.
PF3 is a molecular compound. It consists of a covalent bond between phosphorus and fluorine atoms.
The oxidation number of phosphorus (P) in PF3 is +3. This is because fluorine (F) has an oxidation number of -1, and the overall molecule PF3 has a total charge of 0.

To find the number of molecules of PF3, we need to convert 150.0 grams of PF3 to moles, then use Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23 molecules/mol) to find the number of molecules. The molar mass of PF3 is approximately 87.97 g/mol. By dividing 150.0 g by the molar mass, we get the number of moles, which can be converted to molecules.
PCl3 has more polar bonds than PF3 because chlorine is more electronegative than fluorine, resulting in greater electron density towards chlorine in PCl3.
To determine the mass of F2 needed to produce 120 g of PF3, we first need to calculate the molar mass of PF3, which is approximately 88 g/mol (phosphorus = 31 g/mol, fluorine = 19 g/mol × 3). The balanced chemical reaction for producing PF3 from P and F2 is: P + 3F2 → PF3. Since the molar ratio of PF3 to F2 is 1:3, we need 3 moles of F2 for every mole of PF3 produced. Therefore, for 120 g of PF3, which is about 1.36 moles (120 g / 88 g/mol), we would require approximately 4.08 moles of F2, or about 164 g (4.08 moles × 38 g/mol for F2).
The chemical formula is PF3. The reaction with phsphorus is 2P + 3F2 -> 2PF3
