Phosphorous (P) and chlorine (Cl) bond covalently to form the important industrial compound phosphorous trichloride. The diagrams below show the electron structures of phosphorous and chlorine. On left, a purple circle labeled P surrounded by 3 concentric circles. The inner circle has 2 small green spheres. The second circle has 8 small green spheres. The third circle has 5 small green spheres. On right, a purple circle labeled C l surrounded by 3 concentric circles. The inner circle has 2 small green spheres. The middle circle has 8 small green spheres. The outer circle has 7 small green spheres.
Which diagram shows how the covalent bonds most likely form in a phosphorous trichloride molecule?

At center, P connected above by 2 lines to C l with 2 dots each on right, left, top. Also connected by 1 line at left to C l with 2 dots each above, below, left. Also connected by 1 line at right to C l with 2 dots each above, below, right.
