Chloroform is a chlorine compound but it does not give white precipitate with silver nitrate solution. Give reason.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In case of chloroform, chlorine is bonded to carbon atom by covalent bond. Therefore, no ionic bond formation occurs. Thus, chloroform does not combine with silver nitrate and no white precipitates are formed. `CHCl_3 + AgNO_3 to ` No reaction.
