Question

Write the balanced reaction of ammonia with excess chlorine?

Open in App

Solution

When the greenish yellow gas chlorine is taken in excess, it reacts with colourless gas ammonia to give a yellow coloured explosive liquid nitrogen trichloride ( $N C l_{3}$ ).
$N H_{3} + 3 C l_{2 (e x c e s s)} \to 3 H C l + N C l_{3}$
If here ammonia is taken in excess the ammonium chloride is formed.
