Question

PI3Cl2 is a nonpolar molecule. Based on this information, determine the I−P−I bond angle, the Cl−P−Cl bond angle, and the I−P−Cl bond angle. Enter the number of degrees of the I−P−I, Cl−P−Cl, and I−P−Cl bond angles, separated by commas

So I drew it out and am assuming I is the equatorial so I-P-I has a bond angle of 120. Cl is the axial so Cl-P-Cl is 180. So is I-P-Cl 90?

Answer 1

Answer: Yes I-P-Cl = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the angle formed between I-P-Cl is perpendicular hence the angle is 90°
