In case of phosphorus, \(\text{PCl}_3\) and \(\text{PCl}_5\) are possible while nitrogen only forms \(\text{NCl}_3\), and not \(\text{NCl}_5\). This due to :
- A Nitrogen is a gas while phosphorus is a solid at room temperature.
- B Nitrogen does not have vacant d-orbitals in its atom while phosphorus has vacant d-orbitals.
- C The electronegativity of nitrogen is higher than that of phosphorus.
- D The atom of nitrogen is smaller in size than phosphorus.
