Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure

Identify the incorrect statement related to PCl5\mathrm{PCl_5} from the following:

  1. A.The three equatorial P–Cl bonds make an angle of 120∘120^\circ with each other
  2. B.The two axial P–Cl bonds make an angle of 180∘180^\circ with each other
  3. C.Axial P–Cl bonds are longer than equatorial P–Cl bonds
  4. D.PCl5\mathrm{PCl_5} molecule is non-reactive✓

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
