A reaction between ammonia and boron tri...

A reaction between ammonia and boron triflurdie is given below :
`:NH_(3)+BF_(3)toH_(3)N:BF_(3)`
Identify the acid and base in this reaction. Which theory explanis it ? What is the hybridsation of B and N in the additon compound ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`NH_3` is a Lewis base and `BF_3` is a Lewis acid. Lewis theory of acids and bases explains this.
B in `BF_3` is `sp^2` hybridised.
N in `NH_3` is `sp^3` hybridised.
