(a) Draw the structures of the following :
(i) `PCl_(5)`(s)
(ii) `SO_(3)^(2-)`
Explain the following observations :
(i) Ammonia has a higher boiling point than phosphin.
(ii) Helium does not form any chemical compound.
(iii) Bi (V) is a stronger oxidising agent than Sb (V).

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Because the presence of f-orbital electrons, Bi is more stable in +3 oxidation state than that of Sb.
