Talk:Nitrogen trichloride

brain damage
I'm removing the brain damage thing.

can somebody add the bond angles and bond lengths in the Nitrogen Trichloride molecule picture.Chemfreak20 (talk) 12:29, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

finger loss
Greenwood and Earnshaw claim Dulong lost 3 fingers in the explosion. Page 468 Chemistry of the Elements.--F0088 (talk) 15:29, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Polarity
In the third paragraph it's written that NCl3 is very polar because of electronegativity difference between chlorine and nitrogen. But N= 3.0, Cl= 3.2; shouldn't that molecule be unpolar? (it's also also written into the template that it's immiscible in water. But if it is a very polar liquid it sould be very soluble in water!). Moreover, chlorine should be in the -1 state and nitrogen in the +3 state (electronegativity difference) and not the opposite; shouldn't it? Bokuwa (talk) 15:53, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

In other Electronegativity scales (such as Allred-Rochow and Allen), EN of Nitrogen (3.0-3.1) is higher than that of Chlorine (2.8-2.9). --Anoop Manakkalath (talk) 03:59, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

Polarity and reaction with water are unreferenced and contradicted by Wiberg and Hollemann
The polarity is low as evidenced by the small dipole moment. The reaction with water according to Wiberg forms N2, HOCl and HCl.

Inconsistency
It says that "Agene was banned in 1947" and "Agene caused brain damage leading to its ban in 1949". Which one? Alfa-ketosav (talk) 11:42, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
