Valence is the number of bonds to other atoms. It is not always numerically equal to the oxidation number.The valence of phosphorus in PCl3 is 3; of P in PCl5 is 5; of P in H3PO4 is 5 (one of the bonds to oxygen is P=O).
Molar mass = 31+ 5(35.5) = 208.5 g/mole divide ... 35.6 g / 208.5 g/mole = 0.171 mole
Yes, PCl5 is a binary molecular compound.
To determine how many moles of PCl5 can be produced from 58.0 g of Cl2, we first need to calculate the moles of Cl2. The molar mass of Cl2 is approximately 70.9 g/mol, so the number of moles of Cl2 is 58.0 g / 70.9 g/mol ≈ 0.819 moles. The balanced reaction for the formation of PCl5 from P4 and Cl2 is: P4 + 10 Cl2 → 4 PCl5. From this, we see that 10 moles of Cl2 produce 4 moles of PCl5, so 0.819 moles of Cl2 can produce (0.819 moles Cl2) * (4 moles PCl5 / 10 moles Cl2) ≈ 0.3276 moles of PCl5. Thus, approximately 0.328 moles of PCl5 can be produced.
Phosphorus pentachloride is a chemical compound with the formula PCl5.
There are 5 chlorine atoms in PCl5.
PCl5 is phosphorous pentachloride. Which is in a trigonal bipyramidal arrangement.
The oxidation state of phosphorus (P) in PCl5 is +5. Each chlorine atom has an oxidation state of -1, and since there are 5 chlorine atoms in PCl5, the total charge contributed by chlorine is -5. To balance this, the oxidation state of phosphorus must be +5.
Valence is the number of bonds to other atoms. It is not always numerically equal to the oxidation number.The valence of phosphorus in PCl3 is 3; of P in PCl5 is 5; of P in H3PO4 is 5 (one of the bonds to oxygen is P=O).
Phosphorus (P) has 5 electrons in its outer shell. In PCl5, phosphorus is surrounded by 5 chlorine atoms, each contributing 1 electron to form a covalent bond with phosphorus. Therefore, in the compound PCl5, phosphorus has a total of 10 electrons in its outer shell.
Phosphorous, or P, has a zero oxidation number in the element. Common oxidation numbers are:- It has a -3 in phosphides, where it forms the P3- ion It has a +3 in oxidation number in for example P4O6, and PCl3 It has a +5 oxidation number in for example P4O10 and PCl5
Phosphorous chlorides are: PCl3, PCl5, P2Cl4.
Phosphorus pentachloride (PCL5)
PCl5 Phosphorous pentachlorideP for Phosphorous and 5 Cl for chloride= PCl5 College Chemistry student
In the solid PCl5 is ionic PCl4+ PCl6- In the gas and liquid phases molecular PCl5 is present which does not have a permanent dipole moment. The intermolecular force is a london dispersion force.
If you mean elemental Phosphorous (As in, just a chunk of P), I believe that the reaction would go to Phosphorous pentachloride like this: P + 5 Cl--> PCl5 THe Lewis Dot structure works out that way, anyways.
Our lower number of moles is .316 so we will use that. The total molar mass of PCl5 is 208.2. So we will multiply the lower number of moles by our total mass. .316mol X 208.2 g/mol = 65.8g <------ answer.
