catenation is the chemical linkage into chains of atoms of the same element , occurring only among the atoms of an element that has a valence of at least to and that forms relatively strong bonds with itself.

Answer:

In chemistry, catenation is the bonding of atoms of the same element into a series, called a chain. A chain or a ring shape may be open if its ends are not bonded to each other, or closed if they are bonded in a ring

When pcl5 solidifies it forms pcl4 cations and pcl6–anions. according to valence bond theory, what hybrid orbitals are used by p

SSSSS [86.1K]

When pcl5 solidifies it forms pcl4 cations and pcl6–anions. according to valence bond theory, hybrid orbitals that are used by phosphorus in the pcl4 cations are one orbital of s and three orbital of p as it is sp³hydridised.

<h3>What is sp³ hybridization?</h3>

Hybridization is a process or system which specifies the shape and geometry of any element or molecule with bond angles too.

The pcl4 cation is sp³ hybridized because of the phosphorus behave as a central atom here and the 4 chloride molecules are attached with the p- orbitals to the phosphorus molecule.

Therefore, pcl4 cation is sp³ hybridized.
