The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the two compounds \( PX_2Y_3 \) and \( PX_3Y_2 \) and their behavior when all 'X' atoms are replaced by 'Z' atoms, given the electronegativity order \( X > Y > Z \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structure of \( PX_2Y_3 \)**: - Phosphorus (P) is a pentavalent atom, which means it has 5 valence electrons. The structure of \( PX_2Y_3 \) will be trigonal bipyramidal. - In this structure, the more electronegative atoms (X) will occupy the axial positions, and the less electronegative atoms (Y) will occupy the equatorial positions. - Therefore, the arrangement will be: - Axial: X, X - Equatorial: Y, Y, Y 2. **Dipole Moment of \( PX_2Y_3 \)**: - Since the two X atoms are at the axial positions and the three Y atoms are at the equatorial positions, the dipole moments of the X atoms will cancel out due to symmetry. - Thus, the dipole moment \( \mu \) of \( PX_2Y_3 \) is **zero**. 3. **Replace X with Z in \( PX_2Y_3 \)**: - When we replace all X atoms with Z, we get \( PZ_2Y_3 \). - Given that \( Y \) is more electronegative than \( Z \), the structure will now have: - Axial: Y, Y - Equatorial: Z, Z, Z - In this case, the dipole moments of the Y atoms will not cancel out, leading to a **non-zero dipole moment** for \( PZ_2Y_3 \). 4. **Identify the Structure of \( PX_3Y_2 \)**: - For \( PX_3Y_2 \), the arrangement will be: - Axial: X, X, X - Equatorial: Y, Y - Similar to the previous case, the dipole moments of the X atoms will cancel out, resulting in a dipole moment \( \mu \) of **zero**. 5. **Replace X with Z in \( PX_3Y_2 \)**: - Replacing X with Z gives us \( PZ_3Y_2 \). - The arrangement will be: - Axial: Y, Y - Equatorial: Z, Z, Z - Here, the dipole moments of the Y atoms will not cancel out, leading to a **non-zero dipole moment** for \( PZ_3Y_2 \). ### Conclusion: Now, let's evaluate the statements: - **Statement A**: The dipole moment of the product obtained from \( PX_2Y_3 \) is non-zero. (Correct) - **Statement B**: The dipole moment of the product obtained from \( PX_2Y_3 \) is zero. (Incorrect) - **Statement C**: The dipole moment of the product obtained from \( PX_3Y_2 \) is zero. (Incorrect) - **Statement D**: The dipole moment of the product obtained from \( PX_3Y_2 \) is non-zero. (Correct) Thus, the **incorrect statements** are **B and C**.
