In BX(3) B - X distance is shorter than ...

In `BX_(3)` B - X distance is shorter than what is expected theoretically because (X = F, CI, Br, I)

A

`sp^3` hybridisation of B is responsible for shorter B - X

B

B - X has a double bond character due to back - bonding

C

Dimerisation takes place in `BX_3` which is responsible for shorter B - X distance

D

Due to larger size of X, B - X distance decrease
