Answer:

a) The lewis dot structure is shown in the image attached to this answer

b) The formal charge on each of the atoms is zero

c) bromine has an oxidation state of +5 while fluorine has an oxidation state of -1

d) 90 degrees

e) Square Pyramidal

f) polar bonds

g) polar molecule

Explanation:

The molecule BrF5 has a formal charge of zero. It exhibits an sp3d2 hybridization state with a square pyramidal geometry. The bond angle in the molecule is 90 degrees. It is a molecule of the type AX5E. The oxidation state of bromine is +5 while that of fluorine is -1.

The Br-F bonds are polar. The overall molecule is polar due to asymmetric charge distribution concentrating on the central atom since the molecule is square pyramidal.
