Draw the Lewis Structure for PCI3 and indicate its geometry using dashed and wedged bonds. Determine whether PCI3 is polar or non-polar by analyzing the difference in electronegativity between the atoms in each of its bonds. If polar, use vector arrows to indicate the polar bonds and the net dipole.
