Hello
NCl3 is hydrolyses but NF3 is not because neither F nor N has vacant orbitals(because there is no d-orbitals). Whereas Cl in NCl3 has vacant d-orbitals to accomodate elctrons n get hydrolysed.. Simple because chlorine has a vacant d-orbital . So, Ncl3 is hydrolysed . That's why NF3 is considered stable.
