what is the net ionic equation of:

PCl5 (g)+ 4H20(l)+H3 PO4(aq)+ 5HCL (aq)

One question, do you know the solubility rules?
Aside, what school do you attend? what school has already done so much?

Now, the equation is:
Let's see...
PCl₅ + 4H₂O + H₃PO₄ + 5HCl

Break it down...
P⁵⁺ + Cl^- + 4H⁺ + 4O^-2 + H¹ + PO₄^3- + 5H⁺ + 5Cl^-

And we get... what do we get?

oh dear lucid... water will never ionise to such an extreme degree (into 2H⁺ and O^2-

just found something on PCl₅ in my 3rd year lect notes... it act as a reactant if in present of a ortho-hydroxypyridine and replaces the oxygen with a chloride...

i don't believe water is strong enough to react in such a way....

where did you get this question from?!
