B atom forms three covalent bonds
with three fluorine atoms. Thus, it has only six electrons after forming \[B{{F}_{3}}\]in
valence shell. Therefore, it is an electron deficient compound and still needs
two more electrons to complete its octet. Therefore, it acts as a Lewis acid as
it easily accepts a pair of electrons from Lewis bases.
