Group 15 Elements - The Nitrogen Family - Phosphorus Halides

White phosphorus reacts with chlorine and the product hydrolyses in the presence of water. Calculate the mass of \[\ce{HCl}\] obtained by the hydrolysis of the product formed by the reaction of 62 g of white phosphorus with chlorine in the presence of water.

Write a balanced equation for the hydrolytic reaction of PCl₅ in heavy water.

Complete and balance the following equation: 

\[\ce{PCl3 + H2O ->}\] 

Account for the following : Solid PCl₅ is ionic in nature.

On reaction with \[\ce{Cl2}\], phosphorus forms two types of halides ‘A’ and ‘B’. Halide A is yellowish-white powder but halide ‘B’ is colourless oily liquid. Identify A and B and write the formulas of their hydrolysis products.

Can PCl₅ act as an oxidising as well as a reducing agent? Justify.

What happens when PCl₅ is heated?

SF₆ is known but SCl₆ is not. Why?
