Answer:
Whereas in XeF2, the Xe molecule has an excited state. The arrangement of the electrons of Xenon changes to s2 p5 d1 with two unpaired electrons. Hence the hybridization of the central atom Xe is sp3d. Thus the hybridization of XeF2 molecule is sp3d.
Structure of PCl5: It has a trigonal bipyramidal structure, in gaseous and liquid phases. The three equatorial P–Cl bonds are equivalent, while the two axial bonds are longer than equatorial bonds. This is due to the axial bond pairs suffer more repulsion as compared to equatorial bond pairs.
