Identify the incorrect statement related to `PCI_5` from the following:

A

Three equatorial P-Cl bonds make an angle of `120^@` with each other

B

Two axial P-Cl bonds make an angle of `180^@` with each other

C

Axial P-Cl bonds are longer than equatorial P-Cl bonds

D

`PCI_5` molecule is non-reactive

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D


d. False
