    \[BC{{l}_{3}}\] is a planar molecule whereas \[NC{{l}_{3}}\] is pyramidal because

    A) \[BC{{l}_{3}}\] has no lone pair of electrons but \[NC{{l}_{3}}\] has a lone pair of electrons.

    B) \[B-Cl\] bond is more polar than \[N-Cl\] bond.

    C) Nitrogen atom is smaller than boron atom.

    D) \[N-Cl\] bond is more covalent than \[B-Cl\] bond.

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] In \[BC{{l}_{3}}\] there is \[s{{p}^{2}}\] hybridisation (planar) in \[NC{{l}_{3}}\] hybridisation is \[s{{p}^{3}}\] hence shape is pyramidal
