Convert trichloromethane into formic acid

Answers

Answered by amarnathma528

2

Answer:

CHCl3 + KOH = HC(OH)3

this looses one water molecule. So

HC(OH)3 = HCOOH + H2O

Again due to presence of KOH ( base ) it forms salt

HCOOH + KOH = HCOOK + H2O

Therefore on acidifying it, formic acid is obtained back.
