the hybridization of br in brf3 is
BrF3 does not follow the octet rule. Both Br and F have seven valence electrons, so the Lewis structure will have a total of 28 electrons, or 14 electron pairs. Br is the cent â¦ ral atom, connected to each F atom by a single bond.3 lone electron pairs will surround each F atom, and 2 lone electron pairs will be on the Br atom.he preferred geometry of molecule BrF3 or bromine trifluoride is a  planar T-shaped molecule. This is due to the two lone pairs of  electrons on bromine, which cause a re â¦ pulsion from the fluorine  atoms. Answered.
