Write a balanced equation for the hydrol | Class 12 Chemistry Chapter The p-Block Elements, The p-Block Elements NCERT Solutions

Question:

Write a balanced equation for the hydrolytic reaction of PCl₅ in heavy water.

Answer:

In moist air ,PCl₅ hydrolysis to POCl₃ and finally gets converted to phosphoric acid.The reaction is as follows:

PCL₅ + H₂O → POCl₃ + 2HCl

phosphorus oxychloride

POCl₃ + H₂O → H₃PO₄ + 3HCl

phosphoric acid

But on treatment of PCl₅ with heavy water (D₂O) only phosphorus oxychloride if formed with the liberation of 2 molecules of deuterium chloride as a side product. The reaction involved is:

PCl₅ + D₂O → POCl₃ + 2DCl

phosphorus oxychloride
