The formation of three sp2 hybrid orbitals from one 2s atomic orbital and two 2p atomic orbitals. The choice of px and py is arbitrary.
The bonding in trigonal planar BH3 can be conveniently described in terms of the interactions between a set of sp2 hybrid orbitals centred on the B atom and three H 1s atomic orbitals. Three pairs of electrons are available (three electrons from B and one from each H) to give three 2c-2e σ-bonds.

Derive the symmetries of the valence orbitals and symmetries for the ligand group orbitals (LGOS) to derive a qualitative MO diagram for BF3.
Determine the composition of each LGO in terms of the individual wavefunctions ψ1, ψ2, … and sketch the resulting LGO.
