Question

What are the usesof pcl3 and pcl5

Answer 1

Phosphorus pentachloride is used in the industrial preparation of organic phosphorus compounds.  its preparation from PCl3 and Cl2. 
             PCl3(l) + Cl2(g) ---- > PCl5(s) 
Phosphorus pentachloride is used in the industrial preparation of organic phosphorus .


 Phosphorus trichloride (PCl3) is used as a chemical intermediate to produce a variety of products which are used in several applications including agricultural products, surfactants and metal extractants, flame retardants, additives for lubricants and stabilizers for plastics.

Answer 2

Answer:

1) Pcl3 - phosphorus pentachloride

2) Pcl5- phosphorus trichlorode

Explanation:

1) pcl3 - phosphorus pentachloride -

1) Phosphorus pentachloride may be used as halogenating reagent to convert any substituted aldehyde into the corresponding vinyl halide.

2) It can also undergo reaction with ammonium chloride to yield linear phosphazenes and cyclophosphazenes.

2) pcl5- phosphorus trichlorode-

1) Phosphorus trichloride reacts vigorously with water to generate gaseous HCl.

2) it used for the manufacture of phosphites and other organophosphorus compounds.
