All about iodoform?
Iodoform has the chemical formula CHI3; it is a crystalline solid, volatile, yellow, with a characteristic odor. Iodoform was used as antiseptic.
What are the physical properties of iodoform at room temperature?
Iodoform is a solid at room temperature; the melting point is 119 0C, the density is approx. 4 g/cm3.
What are the uses of iodoform?
Iodoform is used as a disinfectant, ear-hair remover, and it is used in packaging.
What is a test for presence of coch3 group?
Use an Iodoform test
What is the triiodomethane reaction of phenol?
The triiodomethane (iodoform) reaction of phenol involves the conversion of phenol to iodoform in the presence of iodine and sodium hydroxide. The reaction proceeds through oxidation of phenol to benzoic acid, followed by further oxidation and degradation to iodoform. This reaction is commonly used as a test for the presence of a methyl group attached to a phenolic compound.

Why chloroform is in liquid state while iodoform is in solid state?
Iodine is bigger that chlorine. So it can be better polarized so intermolecular forces are more intensive in iodoform.

Iodoform is used as a disinfectant, ear-hair remover, and it is used in packaging.
What is the positive test for iodoform test?
Hi, Iodoform test is used for the detection of methyl ketones as methyl ketones give positive iodoform test. In this test, methyl ketone is treated with iodine (I2) in the presence of base such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to give iodoform(CHI3 - a light yellow coloured ppt). Chemistry of iodoform test is: Secondary alcohols also give positive iodoform test because during the reaction conditions, it gets oxidized to a methyl ketone.
What happen when iodoform falls on skin or nails?
Iodoform is a disinfectant, pale yelow color.
What is hci3?
iodoform
In iodoform test can you use ethanol instead of water?
no, because ethanol gives iodoform reactions
Will methanol give a positive result in iodoform test?
Iodoform test is valid only for ethanol.
Is iodoform soluble in water?
no it's very very sparingly soluble in water .......iodoform soluble in alchol and chloroform .............
What does iodoform do?
Iodoform is the organoiodine compound which is a pale yellow, crystalline, volatile substance and has a penetrating odor. Iodoform is very useful in things like gauze because it's very absorbent and promotes healing.
What is the chemical formula of iodoform?
CHI3
