Answer: heyyyooo

The bond polarity for each bond in a BH3 molecule is polar, due to the difference in electronegativities of the B and H atom. The molecular shape is trigonal planar, and the molecule is non-polar - because due to the symmetry of the molecule, the polarities cancel out.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps!
