  4. DSbF5\mathrm{SbF}_5

Correct answer

A. NF5\mathrm{NF}_5

Step-by-step solution

P , As and Sb form pentahalides of the general formula EX5E X_5 (where, E=PE=\mathrm{P}, As and Sb ) due to the presence of vacant dd-orbitals in their respective valence shell. N does not form pentahalides due to the absence of dd-orbitals in its valence shell.
