Write the balanced chemical equation for the following:
Chlorine reacts with excess of Ammonia.

Open in App

Solution

Reaction between Chlorine and excess Ammonia:
When Ammonia is treated with halogen, oxidation of ammonia takes place to nitrogen along with the formation of halogen acids.
When Chlorine $(Cl)$ reacts with an excess of Ammonia $({NH}_{3})$ , it will give Ammonium chloride $({NH}_{4} Cl)$ & Nitrogen gas $(N_{2})$ as a product.
Balanced chemical equation:
$\underset{Ammonia}{2 {NH}_{3} (g)} + \underset{Chlorine gas}{3 {Cl}_{2} (g)} \to \underset{Nitrogen gas}{N_{2} (g)} + \underset{Hydrogen Chloride}{6 HCl (g)}$
