Solution

In the reaction of ammonia $({NH}_{3})$ with excess chlorine $({Cl}_{2})$ , hydrogen chloride $(HCl)$ and nitrogen trichloride $({NCl}_{3})$ are formed. Nitrogen trichloride $({NCl}_{3})$ is a yellow coloured liquid and it is highly explosive.
${NH}_{3} (g) + 3 {Cl}_{2} (g) \to 3 HCl (g) + {NCl}_{3} (g) (Chlorine) (Nitrogen trichloride) (Excess)$
