Answer:
Explanation:
CH4+Cl2=CH3Cl+HCl
CH3Cl+Cl2=CH2Cl2+ HCl
CH2Cl2+ Cl2=CHCl3+ HCl
(Chloroform)
CHCl3+Cl2=CCl3+ HCl
By these above reaction we conclude that the reaction doesn't stop at once substitution it continues till all hydrogen ions from the organic compound is replaced by Cl...
Thus ,by substituting the hydrogen from chlorine twice it results in the formation of chloroform...so it is an example of substitution reaction...
