Chloroform is the presence of light slowly oxidised by air to form

• Correct answer
  A

  
  
• B

  $\mathrm{HC}(\mathrm{OH})_3$
• C

  
  
• D

  $\mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{OH}$

Solution

Chloroform $\left(\mathrm{CHCl}_3\right)$ in the presence of light gets slowly oxidised by air to form phosgene gas $\left(\mathrm{COCl}_2\right)$. The reaction involve is as follows

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
