Draw the structures of (i)`PCl_(5)(s)`, (ii)`SO_(3)^(2-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i)In the solid state `PCl_(5)` exists as `[PCl_(4)]^(+)[PCI_(6)]^(-)` in which `[PCI_(4)]^(+)` species is octahedral as shown:
(ii)In `SO_(3)^(2-)` ion, `S` is `sp^(3)`-hybridized.Due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons, `SO_(3)^(2-)` has a pyramidal shape as shown :
