The molecules of a certain compound contain one atomeach of nitrogen, fluorine, and oxygen. Two possible struc-tures are NOF (O as central atom) and ONF (N as centralatom). Does the information that the molecule is bentlimit the choice to one of these two possibilities? Explain.

It is given that two possibilities of the structure are present i.e. NOF in which oxygen is a…
