According to the balanced equation, the mole ratio between antimony and antimony trichloride is 1:1. This means that for every 1 mole of antimony reacted, 1 mole of antimony trichloride is formed.

Given that 4.00 mol of antimony is reacted, this means that 4.00 mol of antimony trichloride is formed.

Therefore, the correct answer is d. 4.00 mol antimony trichloride.
