why PCL5 is exist and NCL5 is not exist

Answers

Answered by mintu15

Since nitrogen atom has no vacant 2d orbital in its configuration, it can extend its covalency only up to 5 . Therefore, NCl5 doesn't exist . But in case of phosphorous, an electron can be promoted from 3s filled orbital to 3d vacant orbitals . Therefore, phosphorus can extend its covalency to 5 . Therefore, a molecule PCl5 exists
