The correct Answer is:
To analyze the hydrolysis of BCl₃ and NCl₃, we can break down the reactions and their products step by step. ### Step 1: Hydrolysis of BCl₃ 1. **Reaction Setup**: BCl₃ reacts with water (H₂O). 2. **Chemical Reaction**: \[ BCl_3 + 3H_2O \rightarrow H_3BO_3 + 3HCl \] 3. **Products**: The products of this reaction are boric acid (H₃BO₃) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). ### Step 2: Hydrolysis of NCl₃ 1. **Reaction Setup**: NCl₃ also reacts with water. 2. **Chemical Reaction**: \[ NCl_3 + 3H_2O \rightarrow NH_3 + 3HOCl \] 3. **Products**: The products of this reaction are ammonia (NH₃) and hypochlorous acid (HOCl). ### Step 3: Analyzing the Statements Now, we will evaluate the statements regarding the hydrolysis of BCl₃ and NCl₃: 1. **Statement 1**: NCl₃ is hydrolyzed to give HOCl, but BCl₃ gives SCl. - **Evaluation**: This statement is false. BCl₃ does not produce SCl; it produces HCl. 2. **Statement 2**: Both NCl₃ and BCl₃ hydrolysis give SCl. - **Evaluation**: This statement is false. Neither compound produces SCl upon hydrolysis. 3. **Statement 3**: NCl₃ on hydrolysis gives HOCl, but BCl₃ gives HCl. - **Evaluation**: This statement is true. NCl₃ produces HOCl, and BCl₃ produces HCl. 4. **Statement 4**: Both NCl₃ and BCl₃ on hydrolysis give HOCl. - **Evaluation**: This statement is false. Only NCl₃ produces HOCl; BCl₃ produces HCl. ### Conclusion The correct statement about the hydrolysis of BCl₃ and NCl₃ is: - **Statement 3**: NCl₃ on hydrolysis gives HOCl, but BCl₃ gives HCl.

To analyze the hydrolysis of BCl₃ and NCl₃, we can break down the reactions and their products step by step. ### Step 1: Hydrolysis of BCl₃ 1. **Reaction Setup**: BCl₃ reacts with water (H₂O). 2. **Chemical Reaction**: \[ BCl_3 + 3H_2O \rightarrow H_3BO_3 + 3HCl \] ...
