What are the products obtained when ammonia is reacted with excess chlorine?

  • A
    $\mathrm{N}_2$ and $\mathrm{NCl}_3$
  • B
    $\mathrm{N}_2$ and $\mathrm{HCl}$
  • C
    $\mathrm{N}_2$ and $\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{Cl}$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\mathrm{NCl}_3$ and $\mathrm{HCl}$

Solution

$\mathrm{NH}_3+\underset{\text { excess }}{3 \mathrm{Cl}_2} \longrightarrow \underset{\substack{\text { products }}}{\mathrm{NCl}_3+3 \mathrm{HCl}}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
