Choose the correct statement about chloroform.
(A) It slowly reduces in air in the presence of sunlight to form phosphene gas.
(B) It should be stored in closed dark coloured bottle completely filled to keep air out.
(C) It is when exposed to sunlight in the presence of air forms a gas phosgene.
(D) Chronic chloroform exposure causes damage to liver.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- A (A), (C) only
- B (A), (C) and (D) only
- C (B), (C) and (D) only
- D (A), (B) and (D) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) (B), (C) and (D) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Statement (A) is incorrect (forms phosgene, not phosphene). Statement (B) is correct (prevents oxidation to phosgene). Statement (C) is correct (\(2CHCl_3 + O_2 \xrightarrow{Sunlight} 2COCl_2 + 2HCl\)). Statement (D) is correct (chloroform is hepatotoxic). Correct statements:…
