The correct Answer is:
To determine how carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄) can be prepared, we need to analyze the given reactions one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds:** - Carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄) is the target compound we want to prepare. - We have three options to evaluate. 2. **Evaluate Option A:** - The reaction is: \[ \text{CS}_2 + \text{Cl}_2 \xrightarrow{\text{I}_2} \text{CCl}_4 + \text{S}_2\text{Cl}_2 \] - This reaction involves carbon disulfide (CS₂) reacting with chlorine (Cl₂) in the presence of iodine (I₂) to produce carbon tetrachloride and disulfur dichloride (S₂Cl₂). - This reaction can indeed produce CCl₄. 3. **Evaluate Option B:** - The reaction is: \[ \text{CS}_2 + \text{S}_2\text{Cl}_2 \xrightarrow{\text{I}_2} \text{CCl}_4 + \text{S}_8 \] - Here, carbon disulfide reacts with disulfur dichloride in the presence of iodine to yield carbon tetrachloride and octasulfur (S₈). - This reaction also produces CCl₄. 4. **Evaluate Option C:** - The reaction is: \[ \text{CSCl}_3 + \text{Cl}_2 \xrightarrow{\text{I}_2} \text{CCl}_4 + \text{HCl} \] - In this case, trichloromethane (CSCl₃) reacts with chlorine in the presence of iodine to yield carbon tetrachloride and hydrochloric acid (HCl). - This reaction also produces CCl₄. 5. **Conclusion:** - Since all three reactions (A, B, and C) can produce carbon tetrachloride, the correct answer is: \[ \text{All of the above} \] ### Final Answer: Carbon tetrachloride can be prepared by all of the following reactions: A, B, and C. ---
