  2. Phosphorus pentachloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_pentachloride

    Phosphorus pentachloride is the chemical compound with the formula PCl 5.It is one of the most important phosphorus chlorides/oxychlorides, others being PCl 3 and POCl 3.PCl 5 finds use as a chlorinating reagent.

  3. Trigonal bipyramidal molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonal_bipyramidal...

    In chemistry, a trigonal bipyramid formation is a molecular geometry with one atom at the center and 5 more atoms at the corners of a triangular bipyramid. [1] This is one geometry for which the bond angles surrounding the central atom are not identical (see also pentagonal bipyramid), because there is no geometrical arrangement with five terminal atoms in equivalent positions.

  4. Pentagonal bipyramidal molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_bipyramidal...

    Structure of iodine heptafluoride, an example of a molecule with the pentagonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry. In chemistry, a pentagonal bipyramid is a molecular geometry with one atom at the centre with seven ligands at the corners of a pentagonal bipyramid. A perfect pentagonal bipyramid belongs to the molecular point group D 5h.

  5. Hypervalent molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervalent_molecule

    In chemistry, a hypervalent molecule (the phenomenon is sometimes colloquially known as expanded octet) is a molecule that contains one or more main group elements apparently bearing more than eight electrons in their valence shells.

  6. Pentagonal planar molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_planar...

    In chemistry, the pentagonal planar molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where five atoms, groups of atoms, or ligands are arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of a pentagon. AX 5 E 2

  7. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    Molecular geometry is the three-dimensional arrangement of the atoms that constitute a molecule. It includes the general shape of the molecule as well as bond lengths , bond angles , torsional angles and any other geometrical parameters that determine the position of each atom.

  8. Octahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_molecular_geometry

    In chemistry, octahedral molecular geometry, also called square bipyramidal, [1] describes the shape of compounds with six atoms or groups of atoms or ligands symmetrically arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of an octahedron. The octahedron has eight faces, hence the prefix octa.

  9. Pentachloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentachloride

    A pentachloride is a compound or ion that contains five chlorine atoms or ions. Common pentachlorides include: Antimony pentachloride, SbCl 5; Arsenic pentachloride, AsCl 5 ...
