The elements in group 15 Nitrogen Phosphorus Arsenic Antimony Bismuth
Introduction • All are important elements • Increasing trend to metallic character and cationic behavior from top to botom in the grroup • Nitrogen is different with the other elements, even phosphorus • The diminished ability to form p-p π bond: radius, single bond • The possibility of utilizing the d orbitals: d-p π bond , CN
Introduction (continue) • All , but Bi, are important donor atoms in their trivalent compounds • Bismuth is a metal element, but sodium bismuthate is a very strong oxidizing agent: inert electron pair effect
Ca5(PO4)3F(s) + H2SO4(I) 3H3PO4(l) + 5CaSO4(s) + HF(aq) 2Ca3(PO4)2 + 6SiO2 + 10C 6CaSiO3 + 10CO + P4 1500 °C Occurrence and Recovery of the Elements Phosphorus Principally obtained from phosphate rock -remains of fossilized life forms Ca5(PO4)3F and Ca5(PO4)3OH
Elemental Phosphorus White Phosphorus Black Phosphorus • White Phosphorus: • Reaction on previous slide • Ignites spontaneously in air • Stored under water • Red Phosphorus: • Heat white phosphorus at • 300 C in inert atm for several days • Does not ignite in air • Structure: contain linear chain • Black Phosphorus • The most stable form • Formed when P heated under high pressure.
Occurrence and Recovery of the Elements Arsenic is made on an industrial scale by heating appropriate minerals in the absence of air. The arsenic is condensed out as a solid. FeAsS (700°C) FeS + As(g) + As(s) Arsenic Arsenic is found in nature in a number of minerals including realgar (As4S4) orpiment (As2S3) arsenolite (As2O3) iron minerals such as arsenopyrite (FeAsS) loallingite (FeAs2).
Occurrence and Recovery of the Elements Antimony is found in nature in a number of minerals including stibnite (Sb2S3) ullmanite (NiSbS). Small amounts of native antimony have been found. Some ores are treatable under reducing conditions to form Sb2S3. The sulphide is removed to leave elemental antimony with scrap iron. Sb2S3 + 3Fe 2Sb + 3FeS In antehr process, some ores can be heated to evolve the oxide Sb2O3 and this in turn can be reduced by charcoal in the presence of sodium sulphate, to ensure mixing, to form elemental antimony. 2Sb2O3 +3C 4Sb + 3CO2 Antimony
Occurrence and Recovery of the Elements Bismuth Bismuth is found in nature largely as bismite (Bi2O3) bismuthinite (Bi2S3) bismutite [(BiO)2CO3]. However it is generally made as a byproduct of copper, lead,tin, silver, gold, and zinc plants. The final step involves a reduction of the oxide by charcoal.
Phosphine PH3 Typically prepared by the action of dilute acid on calcium or aluminum phosphide or by pyrolysis of H3PO3 or by reaction of KOH on white phosphorus Pure phosphine is not spontaneously flammable but often inflames due to the presence of trace P2H4 or P4 • Readily oxidized by air once ignited • Sparingly soluble in water • Very weak base pKb 1E-25 PH4+ is readily hydrolized Extremely poisonous Only phosphine of the lower Group 15 elements forms subhydrides - P2H4 Used as a semiconductor dopant source
Arsine AsH3 Even more poisonous than phosphine Readily decomposes to yeild elemental arsenic -”arsenic mirror test” Only know use as a semiconductor dopant source • Stibine SbH3 and Bismuthine BiH3 • Limited stability makes these compounds of little interest • Bond energy (stability): NH3 >PH3 >AsH3 >SbH3 >BiH3 • Bond angle (HAH): NH3 >PH3 >AsH3 >SbH3 >BiH3 • Base strength in water: same as above • Reduce ability: NH3 <PH3 <AsH3 <SbH3 <BiH3
