$PCl_{5}$ reacts with finely divided silver on heating and a white silver salt is obtained, which dissolves on adding excess aqueous $NH_{3}$ solution. Write the reactions involved to explain what happens.

Answers (1)

$PCl_{5}$ reacts with finely divided silver on heating to form white silver salt $(AgCl)$ . This dissolves on addition of excess aqueous ammonia to form soluble complex.

$PCl_{5}+2Ag\rightarrow 2AgCl+PCl_{3}$

$AgCl+2NH _3(aq)\rightarrow [Ag(NH_3 )_ 2]+Cl ^{-}$
