A) \[s{{p}^{3}},\] tetrahedral, 4 valence shell pairs of electrons
B) trigonal bipyramidal, 5 valence shell pairs of electrons
C) \[s{{p}^{3}}{{d}^{2}},\]octahedral, 6 valence shell pairs of electrons
D) \[s{{p}^{3}}d,\]square planar, 4 valence shell pairs of electrons
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
\[\text{PC}{{\text{l}}_{\text{5}}}\]molecule has \[s{{p}^{3}}d\]hybridisation. Its geometry is trigonal bipyramidal and it has 5 valence shell pairs of electrons.
