Question

Which of the following has all equal bond lengths?

(1) SF4 (2) ICl3 (3) PCI3 (4) PCI5​

Answer 1

Answer:

pcl3 and icl3 structure same but pcl3and pcl5 bond length same

Answer 2

All the bond lengths are equal in:

(3) PCI3

- SF4 has a trigonal bipyramidal geometry and axial and equatorial bonds are unequal in it.

- ICl3 has a trigonal bipyramidal geometry and T-shaped structure. The axial and equatorial bonds are also unequal in it.

- PCl3 has a tetrahedral geometry and trigonal pyramidal molecular shape. All the P-Cl bonds are equal in it.

- PCl5 has trigonal bipyramidal structure and axial and equatorial bonds are unequal in it.
