Boron trifluoride BF3 reacts with F- ion to form the BF4- ion. BF3 has only 6 electrons around the B atom, is planar, and is a Lewis acid (as it will accept electrons from an electron pair donor such as F-. BF4- is a tetrahedral ion- all four bonds are equivalent.

Ions formed when boron trifluoride reacts with NaF?

When boron trifluoride (BF3) reacts with sodium fluoride (NaF), the compound sodium boron tetrafluoride (NaBF4) is formed. This reaction involves the transfer of a fluoride ion from NaF to BF3, resulting in the formation of NaBF4.

Is BF4- a coordinate covalent?

No, BF4- is not a coordinate covalent bond. It is a compound formed by an ionic bond between a boron atom and four fluorine atoms, resulting in the boron ion having a negative charge.


Does BF4- contain a coordinate covalent bond?

Boron triflouride, or BF3 does not have a double bond. This is because boron has three atoms in its outer shell and fluorine has seven. This enables boron to form three single covalent bonds with the fluorine.


Is BF4- tetrahedral in shape?

Yes! BF4- is a tetrahedral as it is just a boron with four Florines attached and no lone pairs.

Why BF4- and NH4 plus are isobal?

Not sure what the word isobal might be. BH4- and NH4+ are isoelectronic. BF4- and NH4+ are both tetrahedral and have the same geometry.


What is the structure of the BF4- ion?

The BF4- ion, also known as tetrafluoroborate, is a polyatomic anion consisting of one boron atom and four fluorine atoms. Boron is at the center, surrounded by the four fluorine atoms, resulting in a trigonal bipyramidal structure with a formal negative charge on the ion.


How do you do hybridization of BF4?

Boron in BF4 has an empty p orbital, so it undergoes sp3 hybridization. The boron atom will promote its 2s and two of its 2p orbitals to create four sp3 hybrid orbitals, allowing the boron to form four sigma bonds with the surrounding fluorine atoms.
