PCl3 ( Phosphorus trichloride ) gets easily hydrolysed in water or , moisture present in air , forming HCl gas as per following reaction ,
PCl3 + 3 H2 O -----------> H3 PO3 + 3HCl
Thus , HCl gas produced is highly soluble in water . It forms a mist of droplets of hydrogen chloride . These droplets , thereafter get mixed with atmospheric vapours to form a mist which appears as white fumes.
