Question

starting from trichloromethane how would you prepare ethyne ?​

Answer 1

Chloroform will convert to ethylene by heating the former with silver powder.
Chloroform is represented by the chemical formula CHCl3. ...
The silver powder acts as reducing agent in the given conversion, it reduces carbon and itself gets oxidised.
The reaction for conversion is as follows -
2CHCl3 + 6Ag --> C2H2 + 6AgCl.
