Electrons always fill orbitals in the same order. Each s orbital holds 2 electrons, each set of p orbitals holds 6 electrons, ea
ch set of d orbitals holds 10 electrons, and each set of f orbitals holds 14 electrons. The order in which orbitals are filled, from first to last, is:
1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 5p 6s 4f 5d 6p 7s 5f 6d 7p

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
