What happens when (i) PCl_5 is heated ? (ii) H_3PO_3 is heated ? Write the reaction involved.

Answer»

SOLUTION :(i) When `PCl_5` is HEATED , it SUBLIMES but decomposeson STRONGER , heating.
`PCl_5 overset(Delta) to PCl_3 + Cl_2`
(ii) `H_3PO_3` on heating disproportionatesto give orthophosphoric acid and PHOSPHINE .
`4H_3PO_3to 3H_3PO_4 + PH_3`
