The planar structure of \[B{{F}_{3}}\]can be explained by the fact that \[B{{F}_{3}}\] is

A)  \[sp-\]hybridized           

B)  \[s{{p}^{2}}-\]hybridized

C)  \[s{{p}^{3}}-\]hybridized

D)         \[s{{p}^{3}}d\]hybridized

Correct Answer: B

Solution :

Boron has a planar structure due to \[s{{p}^{2}}\]hybridisation.
