ClF3 has 3 bonded F atoms and 2 lone pairs on Cl. Its molecular geometry is:
- Acheck_circle
T-shaped
- B
Trigonal planar
- C
Trigonal bipyramidal
- D
See-saw
Explanation
Five domains (3 bonds + 2 lone pairs) give trigonal bipyramidal electron geometry; both lone pairs occupy equatorial positions, giving a T-shape.
