    lodoform gives a precipitate with \[AgN{{O}_{3}}\] on heating but chloroform does not because:

    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 these       

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Sol.         On heating \[C-I\] bond in \[CH{{I}_{3}}\]breaks,, but \[C-Cl\] bond in \[CHC{{I}_{3}}\] does not break. Thus, \[AgN{{O}_{3}}\] gives \[AgI\] with iodoform.
