When boron trifluoride (BF3) reacts with ammonia (NH3), which outcome occurs when incomplete octets combine?

A)Coordinate covalent bond is formed
B)Resonance structures become more stable
C)Ionic character increases dramatically
D)Hybrid orbital symmetry remains conserved

💡 Explanation

A coordinate covalent bond happens because nitrogen donates its electron pair and boron accepts this pair forming an adduct, resulting from the *Lewis acid-base theory*, therefore BF3 accepts electrons rather than just sharing resulting in electron octets.
