Nitrogen trifluoride is a planar molecule. The nitrogen atom is directly bonded with three fluorine atoms on the same plane. According to the VSEPR theory, it has a bond angle of 120 degrees.
I think there is confusion with boron trifluoride.
The actual measured bond angle of NF3 is 102.50
In VSEPR theory (Valence shell electron pair theory) the number of electron pairs around the nitrogen are counted and there are four. If all of pairs were identical as in methane for instance, then the bond angle would be the tetrahedral angle of 109.5 0 however the lone pair decreases the other angles slightly
What else can I help you with?
What is the bond angle of nitrogen dioxide?
The NO2 molecule is a bent molecule with a central nitrogen attached to two oxygen atoms. The bond angle between the N-O bonds is 134.30
What are the bond angle for NH4plus?
NH4+ is tetrahedral, with bond angle of 109.5o
What is the shape and bond angle of NOCl?
the shape is bent and the bond angle is approximately 120
What is the bond angle of ncl3?
The bond angle of NCl3 is approximately 107 degrees. This is due to the lone pair of electrons on nitrogen causing repulsion and pushing the chlorine atoms closer together.
What is the bond angle of NBr3?
The bond angle of NBr3 is approximately 107 degrees. This is because the nitrogen atom has a lone pair of electrons that repels the bonding electron pairs, reducing the bond angle from the ideal 120 degrees for a trigonal planar arrangement.

What is the maximum number of covalent formed by nitrogen?
Nitrogen can form three covalent bods.An example is ammonia (NH3) with the bond angle 106,7o.
What is the bond angle for NICl2?
The bond angle for NICl2 is approximately 180 degrees. This is because the molecule has a linear geometry, with the two chlorine atoms positioned on opposite sides of the central nitrogen atom.
What is the bond angle on NOF?
The bond angle in NOF would be approximately 120 degrees. This is because the nitrogen atom is bonded to the oxygen and fluorine atoms, resulting in a trigonal planar molecular geometry with equal bond angles.
What is the bond angle for NO2?
134.3o. It is a bent molecule, but because of the additional electron pairs on the O atoms, the bond angle is deviated from 120o.
Bond angle of NO2-?
The bond angle of NO2- is approximately 134 degrees. This is because the nitrogen atom is surrounded by two oxygen atoms, causing repulsion that results in the bond angle being less than the ideal 120 degrees of a trigonal planar arrangement.
What is the bond angle of hydrogen cyanide?
The bond angle of Hydrogen Cyanide, or HCN, is 180 degrees. The structure looks like this: H-(single bond)-C-(triple bond)-N:
The angle around nitrogen in the ammonium is?
The H-N-H bond angle (assuming that's what the question is trying to ask) is a bit less than the tetrahedral angle, 109.5o.
