In which transformation the change of hybridization and shape about underlined atom take place?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

\underline{N}{H}_3+{BF}_3 \rightarrow\left[{H}_3 \underline{N}^{+} \rightarrow \bar{B} F_3\right]

Option B is correct because in the given transformation, the hybridization of N changes from sp3 to sp3 after the reaction with BF3, and the shape changes from trigonal pyramidal to tetrahedral.
