Q. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct for PCl5?
- P atom is sp3d - hybridized and has trigonal bipyramidal geometry
- It acts as a Lewis acid

- Axial Cl atoms are closer to equatorial Cl atoms
Q. The reaction of Cl2 gas with cold dilute and hot concentrated NaOH in water give sodium salt of two (different) oxoacids of chlorine P and Q respectively. The Cl2 gas reacts with SO2 gas, in presence of charcoal to give a product R. R reacts with white phosphorous to give a compound S. On hydrolysis, S gives an oxoacid of phosphorous T.
R, S and T, respectively are:
R, S and T, respectively are:
- SOCl2, PCl3 and H3PO2
- SO2Cl2, PCl5 and H3PO4
- SO2Cl2, PCl5 and H3PO4
- SO2Cl2, PCl3 and H3PO3
