    Answer is: PCl3 + Cl2 → PCl5.

    Balanced chemical reaction: PCl₃ + Cl₂ → PCl₅.

    Oxidation half reaction: P⁺³ → P⁺⁵ + 2e⁻.

    Reduction half reaction: Cl₂ + 2e⁻ → 2Cl⁻.

    In this chemical reaction phosphorus lost two electrons and change oxidatation number from + 3 to + 5; chlorine gain those two electrons and change oxidation number form 0 to - 1.

    In other chemical reactions, elements do not change oxidation numbers.
