A) C-I bond in iodoform is weak and C-Cl bond in chloroform is strong
B) chloroform is covalent
C) iodoform is ionic
D) none of the above
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
On heating \[\text{C}-\text{I}\] bond in \[\text{CH}{{\text{I}}_{\text{3}}}\] breaks, but C-Cl bond in \[\text{CHC}{{\text{l}}_{3}}\] does not break. Thus, \[\text{AgN}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\] gives Agl with iodoform.
