PCl 5, PCl 3 and NCl 3 are halides of Group15 elements. PCl 5 can be formed from the reaction of phosphorus with chlorine. PCl 5 has a melting point of 161 °C. Write an equation for the formation of PCl 5 from the reaction of phosphorus and chlorine. State the type of structure and bonding shown by liquid PCl 5. A small amount of PCl 5 is added to excess water. The PCl 5 reacts vigorously to form a colourless solution. Give one other observation you would make when PCl 5 reacts with excess water. Write the equation for the reaction of PCl 5 with excess water. Estimate the pH of the resulting solution. PCl 3 is used to convert alcohols to chloroalkanes, such as compound T. Cl Cl T A possible synthesis of T is shown. Cl Cl HO OH OH HO O reaction 1 using PCl 3 Identify a reagent that could be used in reaction1. T exhibits optical isomerism. Explain what is meant by the term optical isomer and circle any atomin T that give rise to optical isomerism. Cl Cl T  T is a minor product in the reaction of compoundS with excess HCl. S Draw the structure of the major product of the reaction of S with excess HCl.  NCl 3 is a yellow liquid that can be used to bleach flour. Predict the shape of the NCl 3 molecule and the Cl –N–Cl bond angle. shape bond angle  NCl 3 reacts with water to form HOCl, a weak Brønsted-Lowry acid. Explain fully what is meant by the term weak Brønsted-Lowry acid. NCl 3decomposes according to the equation shown. 2NCl 3→ N2+ 3Cl 2A sealed container of volume 250 cm3 contains an unreactive gas at a pressure of 1.00×105Pa. 0.241 g of NCl 3was injected into the sealed container. The sealed container was heated to make the NCl 3decompose fully and then cooled to 20 °C. Calculate the final total pressure inside the sealed container at 20 °C after the NCl 3has fully decomposed.  final total pressure = Pa
