Solution

The correct option is D $B F_{3}$
$I F_{3}$ molecule is pyramidal in shape and is $s p^{3}$ hybridised.

$P C l_{3}$ molecule is pyramidal in shape and is $s p^{3}$ hybridised.

$N H_{3}$ molecule is pyramidal in shape and is $s p^{3}$ hybridised.

$B F_{3}$ molecule' is trigonal planar in geometry and is $s p^{2}$ hybridised.

So, the answer is D.
