Boron trichloride is the inorganic compound with the formula BCl3. This colorless gas is a valuable reagent in organic synthesis. It is highly reactive toward water.
Production and structure
Boron reacts with halogens to give the corresponding trihalides. Boron trichloride is, however, produced industrially by direct chlorination of boron oxide and carbon at 500°C.
The carbothermic reaction is analogous to the Kroll process for the conversion of titanium dioxide to titanium tetrachloride. In the laboratory BF3 reacted with AlCl3 gives BCl3 via halogen exchange. BCl3 is a trigonal planar molecule like the other boron trihalides, and has a bond length of 175pm.
A degree of π-bonding has been proposed to explain the short B− Cl distance although there is some debate as to its extent. It does not dimerize, although NMR studies of mixtures of boron trihalides shows the presence of mixed halides. The absence of dimerisation contrasts with the tendencies of AlCl3 and GaCl3, which form dimers or polymers with 4 or 6 coordinate metal centres.
B-cell CLL/lymphoma 9 protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BCL9gene.
Function
BCL9, together with its paralogue gene BCL9L (BCL9 like or BCL9.2), have been extensively studied for their role as transcriptional beta-catenin cofactors, fundamental for the transcription of Wnt target genes.
BCL9 and BCL9L have been shown to take part in other tissue-specific molecular mechanisms, showing that their role in the Wnt signaling cascade is only one aspect of their mode of action.
Clinical significance
BCL9 is associated with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It may be a target of translocation in B-cell malignancies with abnormalities of 1q21. The overexpression of BCL9 may be of pathogenic significance in B-cell malignancies.
BCL9 and BCL9L are potential clinical targets for human cancers; for instance, the gene expression changes that they promote is associated with a poor outcome in colorectal cancer.
B-cell lymphoma 3-encoded protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BCL3gene.
This gene is a proto-oncogene candidate. It is identified by its translocation into the immunoglobulin alpha-locus in some cases of B-cell leukemia. The protein encoded by this gene contains seven ankyrin repeats, which are most closely related to those found in I kappa B proteins. This protein functions as a transcriptional coactivator that activates through its association with NF-kappa B homodimers. The expression of this gene can be induced by NF-kappa B, which forms a part of the autoregulatory loop that controls the nuclear residence of p50 NF-kappa B.
Superfamily is a Norwegian pop rock band from Moss, Norway. The band is composed of Steven Ray Wilson (lead vocals), Kim Granholt (keytar, synthesizer), Martin Steffensen (guitar), and Richard Lorentz (drums). Anders Nielsen, Terje Krumins and Håkon Moe provide backing vocals as "choirboys".
Superfamily debuted with an EP in 2004, called Champagne EP. Prior to the release, the band received rotation on NRK P3 and Radio Tango. The band achieved mainstream popularity with the release of their second album, Warszawa, in 2007. The same year, the band won Spellemannprisen in the pop category.
Formation and early years
Superfamily was formed in 2002 by Steven Ray Wilson, Kim Granholt and Martin Steffensen. They wrote and recorded songs at home, and burned "hundreds, maybe thousands" of CD's which they handed out for free. Gradually developing a small fan following, the band decided to add four new members; a bassist, a drummer, and two "choirboys". The band started playing live at local pubs and bars, and in small venues in Oslo. The band also received some publicity through NRK Urørt, a project that promotes unsigned artists. Eventually, the band was contacted by Kåre Vestrheim of Propeller Recordings. Vestrheim attended one of the band's concerts, but was "not particularly impressed" by their performance. After being turned down, the band decided to thoroughly review their problems, by creating a Powerpoint presentation at the University of Oslo, called "How to achieve something live". The band concluded that they needed more discipline on stage.
A given rank subsumes under it less general categories, that is, more specific descriptions of life forms. Above it, each rank is classified within more general categories of organisms and groups of organisms related to each other through inheritance of traits or features from common ancestors. The rank of any species and the description of its genus is basic; which means that to identify a particular organism, it is usually not necessary to specify ranks other than these first two.
Consider a particular species, the red fox Vulpes vulpes: its next rank, the genus Vulpes, comprises all the 'true foxes'. Their closest relatives are in the immediately higher rank, the family Canidae, which includes dogs, wolves, jackals, all foxes, and other caniforms; the next higher rank, the order Carnivora, includes feliforms and caniforms (lions, tigers, bears, hyenas, wolverines, and all those mentioned above), plus other carnivorous mammals. As one group of the class Mammalia, all of the above are classified among those with backbones in the Chordata phylum rank, and with them among all the animals in the Animalia kingdom rank. Finally, all of the above will find their earliest relatives somewhere in their domain rank Eukarya.

BCl3 Lewis Structure - How to Draw the Lewis Structure for BCl3
A step-by-step explanation of how to draw the BCl3 Lewis Dot Structure (Boron trichloride).
For the BCl3 structure use the periodic table to find the total number of valence electrons for the BCl3 molecule. Once we know how many valence electrons there are in BCl3 we can distribute them around the central atom with the goal of filling the outer shells of each atom.
Note, that as several viewers have pointed out, at 2:53 in the video I say "Bromine" instead of Boron. I meant to say "Boron".
Note that Boron can have a full outer shell with only six valence electrons. In the Lewis structure for BCl3 the central atom (Boron) will only have six valence electrons.
In the Lewis structure of BCl3 structure there are a total of 24 valence electrons. BCl3 is also called Boron trichloride.

----- Steps to Write Lewis Structure for compounds like BCl3 -----
1. Find the total valence electrons for the BCl3 molecule.
2. Put the least electronegative atom in the center. Note: Hydrogen (H) always goes outside.
3. Put two electrons between atoms to form a chemical bond.
4. Complete octets on outside atoms.
5. If central atom does not have an octet, move electrons from outer atoms to form double or triple bonds.

For the BCl3 structure use the periodic table to find the total number of valence electrons for the BCl3 molecule. Once we know how many valence electrons there are in BCl3 we can distribute them around the central atom with the goal of filling the outer shells of each atom.
Note, that as several viewers have pointed out, at 2:53 in the video I say "Bromine" instead of Boron. I meant to say "Boron".
Note that Boron can have a full outer shell with only six valence electrons. In the Lewis structure for BCl3 the central atom (Boron) will only have six valence electrons.
In the Lewis structure of BCl3 structure there are a total of 24 valence electrons. BCl3 is also called Boron trichloride.
----- Steps to Write Lewis Structure for compounds like BCl3 -----
1. Find the total valence electrons for the BCl3 molecule.
2. Put the least electronegative atom in the center. Note: Hydrogen (H) always goes outside.
3. Put two electrons between atoms to form a chemical bond.
4. Complete octets on outside atoms.
5. If central atom does not have an octet, move electrons from outer atoms to form double or triple bonds.

To tell if BCl3 (Boron trichloride) is ionic or covalent (also called molecular) we look at the Periodic Table that and see that B is a non-metal and Cl is a non-metal. When we have a non-metal and a non-metal the compound is usually considered covalent.
Because we have a non-metal and non-metal in BCl3 there will be a difference in electronegativity between B and Cl is less than 2.0. This difference results in an electron(s) being shared between the non-metals. The sharing means that the bond will be considered covalent/molecular.

In this video we'll write the correct formula for Boron trichloride (BCl3). To write the formula for Boron trichloride we’ll use the Periodic Table and follow some simple rules.
When we have a non-metal and a non-metal we have a molecular compound (sometimes called covalent). Molecular compounds are some of the simplest to name.
List of Metalloids: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalloid
Keys for Writing the Formulas for Molecular Compounds:
- Write the element symbol for both elements.
- Place a subscript after each element according to its prefix.
Note: Don’t write the subscript '1'.
---------
Prefixes
mono- 1
di- 2
tri- 3
tetra- 4
penta- 5
hexa- 6
hepta- 7
octa- 8
nona- 9
deca- 10
---------
Caution: We only write "mono" for the second element in a molecular compound. So CO would be carbon monoxide. Monocarbon monooxide is incorrect.

This video explains hybridisation and formation of BCl3 ( Boron trichloride) molecule from hybrid orbitals.
Hybridisation- The process of intermixing of orbitals of slightly different energies so as to produce a new set of orbitals of equivalent energy and shape.
condition for hybridisation
1.The orbitals present in valence shell of the atom are hybridised.
2. The orbitals undergoing hybridisation should have almost equal energy.
3. The number of hybrid orbitals should equal to number of atomic orbitals that get hybridised.
4. Promotion of electron is not essential prior to hybridisation.
5. Not only half filled orbitals, sometimes filled orbitals also involve in hybridisation.
SP2 hybridisation
In sp2 hybridisation, one s-orbital and two p-orbital of the valence shell intermix and form four sp2 hybridised orbitals.These hybrid orbitals directed towards the corners of equilateral triangle.There is 1/3 s-character and 2/3 p- character in sp2 hybrid orbital.
BCl3, Boron trichloride has sp2 hybridisation
Boron valence electrons -3
Electronic configuration of carbon in ground state 2s2 2px1
In excited state 2s12px12py1
Hybrid state. sp2 ( three orbitals)
Each hybrid sp2 orbital has one unpaired electron and these three orbitals overlap with 2p-orbital of Chlorine and form three B-Cl bonds.
The geometry of the molecule is Trigonal planar and bond angle between Cl-B-Cl is 120 degrees.

Also, don't forget to check out my blog: http://chemistryvideoguides.blogspot.com/ where new Chemistry Video Guides will be posted!
An explanation of the molecular geometry for the BCl3 (Boron trichloride) including a description of the BCl3 bond angles. The electron geometry for the Boron trichloride is also provided.
The ideal bond angle for the Boron trichloride is 120° since it has a Trigonal planer molecular geometry. Experimentally we would expect the bond angle to be approximately 120°.
To determine the molecular geometry, or shape for a compound like BCl3, we complete the following steps:
1) Draw the Lewis Structure for the compound (for BCl3: https://youtu.be/8l1IoCVWtI4).
2) Predict how the atoms and lone pairs will spread out when the repel each other.
3) Use a chart based on steric number (like the one in the video) or use the AXN notation to find the molecular shape. This will be determined by the number of atoms and lone pairs attached to the central atom.
If you are trying to find the electron geometry for BCl3 we would expect it to be Trigonal planer.

Boron trichloride is the inorganic compound with the formula BCl3. This colorless gas is a valuable reagent in organic synthesis. It is highly reactive toward water.
Production and structure
Boron reacts with halogens to give the corresponding trihalides. Boron trichloride is, however, produced industrially by direct chlorination of boron oxide and carbon at 500°C.
The carbothermic reaction is analogous to the Kroll process for the conversion of titanium dioxide to titanium tetrachloride. In the laboratory BF3 reacted with AlCl3 gives BCl3 via halogen exchange. BCl3 is a trigonal planar molecule like the other boron trihalides, and has a bond length of 175pm.
A degree of π-bonding has been proposed to explain the short B− Cl distance although there is some debate as to its extent. It does not dimerize, although NMR studies of mixtures of boron trihalides shows the presence of mixed halides. The absence of dimerisation contrasts with the tendencies of AlCl3 and GaCl3, which form dimers or polymers with 4 or 6 coordinate metal centres.
A step-by-step explanation of how to draw the BCl3 Lewis Dot Structure (Boron trichloride).
