1. (10 pts total) Phosphorous forms trihalides with each of the halogens. At room temperature one is a gas, two are liquids and one is a solid.2. (6 pts) Refer to the generic phase diagram below. Label the diagram indicating the phases, special curves and points.
- (2 pts) Which of the phosphorous trihalides (PF3, PCl3, PBr3, PI3) is the solid?
- (4 pts) What are the two types of intermolecular forces that exist for the phosphorous trihalides? (Be specific)
- (4 pts) In three sentences or less explain why the trihalide you predicted to be a solid is a solid and the other trihalides are not solids.
