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 chlorides are: PCl3, PCl5, P2Cl4.
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

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.
The name of the compound PCl5 is phosphorus pentachloride.
