    Iodoform 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 the above

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

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