See explanation and image attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Nitrogen trichloride NCl3 contains one nitrogen and three chlorine atoms. Each chlorine atom has three lone pairs of electrons while nitrogen has one lone pair of electrons.

The molecule geometry of the molecule is trigonal pyramidal while it's electron domain geometry is tetrahedral. Nitrogen is the central atom and is found in sp3 hybridization.

There is no formal charge on the molecule.
