Vedclass · Answer

(C) The reaction of ethanol (an alcohol) with iodine $(I_2)$ in the presence of sodium hydroxide $(NaOH)$ is known as the iodoform test. The chemical reaction is: $CH_3CH_2OH + 4I_2 + 6NaOH 	o CHI_3 + HCOONa + 5NaI + 5H_2O$. This reaction produces iodoform $(CHI_3)$,which is a yellow precipitate. Therefore,option $C$ is correct.
