Answer :

Answer:

One lone pair

Explanation:

If we follow the valence bond approach of looking at chemical bonding, then we have to consider the electronic configuration of Fe^3+ which is; [Ar] 3d5.

This means that we have three electrons available to combine with three fluorine atoms leaving one lone pair to form FeF3.

Hence, FeF3 has one lone pair of electrons.
