The correct statement(s) regarding three

\mathrm{EI}_3

molecules (where

\mathrm{E}=\mathrm{P}, \mathrm{As}

or Sb ) is/are: The correct statement(s) regarding three EI_3 molecules (where E=P, As or Sb ) is/are:

The correct statement(s) regarding three EI_3 molecules (where E=P, As or Sb ) is/are:

Options

AThese compounds are formed by mutual sharing of electrons and hence considered as covalent compounds
B $\mathrm{PI}_3$ is most susceptible towards hydrolysis in water to give phosphorous acid
C $\mathrm{SbI}_3$ has highest boiling point amongst all
DIn $\mathrm{AsI}_3$ , there is least repulsion between bond pair and lone pair and thus has the largest I-E-I angle

Correct answer

A. These compounds are formed by mutual sharing of electrons and hence considered as covalent compounds
