Predict the shape of the molecule.

trigonal bipyramidal

Explanation:

Number of electron pairs =

V = number of valence electrons present in central atom

N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom

C = charge of cation

A = charge of anion

:

In the given molecule, antimony is the central atom and there are five chlorine as monovalent atoms.

The number of electron pairs are 5 that means the hybridization will be and geometry of the molecule will be trigonal bipyramidal.
