A) \[C{{H}_{3}}Cl\]
B) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}Cl\]
C) \[CC{{l}_{3}}.CHO\]
D) \[CHC{{l}_{3}}\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
When chlorine reacts with ethyl alcohol in the presence of \[NaOH\], chloroform is obtained as a final product. \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}OH+C{{l}_{2}}\xrightarrow{Oxidation}\] \[\underset{acetaldehyde}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}CHO}}\,+2HCl\] \[C{{H}_{3}}CHO+3C{{l}_{2}}\xrightarrow{Chlorination}\] \[\underset{chloral}{\mathop{CC{{l}_{3}}CHO}}\,+3HCl\] \[CC{{l}_{3}}CHO+NaOH\xrightarrow{Hydrolysis}\] \[\underset{chloroform}{\mathop{CHC{{l}_{3}}}}\,+HCOONa\]
