Sum of maximum number of atoms in a plane & maximum number of identical bond angles in .
Y = Sum of maximum number of atoms in one plane & maximum number of identical bond angles in cationic part of PBr₅ solid.
Calculate the value of .
Answer:
1
Solution:
To find X, consider Al₂Cl₆: 6 atoms (2 Al, 4 Cl) are planar. There are 4 identical bond angles (Al-Cl-Al or Cl-Al-Cl). So, X = 6 + 4 = 10.
For Y, PBr₅ solid is [PBr₄]⁺[Br]⁻. [PBr₄]⁺ is tetrahedral, 3 atoms (P, 2 Br) are planar. It has 6 identical bond angles. So, Y = 3 + 6 = 9.
Therefore, X - Y = 10 - 9 = 1.
