Question

which have high dipole moment PCl3 or PF3 ???
answer me fast after that I will mark u brainliest​

Answer 1

Dipole moment of $PF_{3}$ and $PCl_{3}$

Explanation:

• Dipole moments tells about the polarity of the molecule.

• Symmetrical molecules which have no lone pair possess no dipole moment, while the unsymmetrical molecule which have lone pair possess dipole moment

• $PF_{3}$ and $PCl_{3}$ both have lone pair so both possess dipole moment. But the value of dipole moment in both is different.

• Phosphorus- trichloride and phosphorus- trifluoride both possess dipole moment. But fluorine atom has high electronegativity than chlorine. So $PF_{3}$ has more dipole moment than $PCl_{3}$
