When ketone is reacted with phosphorous pentachloride, chlorination takes place at the carbonyl carbon with substitution of the oxygen atom to give a geminal dichloride (with 2 Cl atoms on same carbon) according to the following equation:
so we can say that acetone is converted into 2,2-dichloropropane by action of PCl₅

Answer:
a = 4
b = 3
Explanation:
<u>SOLUTION :-</u>
Balance it by using 'hit & trial' method , and you'll get the answer :-
2Fe₂O + 3C → <u>4</u>Fe + <u>3</u>CO₂
⇒ a = 4 ; b = 3
<u></u>
<u>VERIFICATION :-</u>
<em>In reactant side of equation :-</em>
- Number of atoms in Fe = 2×2 = 4
- Number of atoms in O = 2×3 = 6
- Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
<em>In product side of equation :-</em>
- Number of atoms in Fe = 4×1 = 4
- Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
- Number of atoms in O = 3×2 = 6
Number of atoms of each element is equal in both reactant & product side of equation. Hence , the equation is balanced.
