The structure of PCl_(5) in the solid state is :

PCl_5 has trigonal pyramidal geometry with sp^3 d hybridisation in gases and liquid state but in solid state it exist as ionic compound. What is the hybridisation state of cation part of solid PCl_5 ?

PCl_5 has trigonal pyramidal geometry with sp^3 d hybridisation in gases and liquid state but in solid state it exist as ionic compound. In presence of small amount of water, PCl_5 hydrolysis to form.

Asserartion: PCl_(5) is covalent in gaseous and liquide states but ionic in solid state. Reason: PCl_(5) in solid state consits of tetrahhedral PCl_(4)^(+) cation and octahedral PCl_(6)^(-) anion.
