Total number of bonds in PCl5<\/sub> which are at 90\u00b0 to each other, is<\/p>","options":null,"solution":"

<\/figure>

Hybridization of PCl5<\/sub> is sp3<\/sup>d hybridization and its shape is trigonal bipyramidal geometry. There are 5 P-Cl sigma bonds are formed in which three P-Cl atoms are equatorial bonds that lie in one plane at an angle of 120\u2070. Rest of two P-Cl atoms are axial bonds that are at right angle to the plane of equatorial bonds that is one above and one below the plane. <\/span>
As one axial bond is at right angle to 3 equatorial bonds, there are two axial bonds-so total 6 right angle bonds are there in PCl5<\/sub>.<\/span><\/p>
