Solution

The correct options are
C $A g N O_{3}$ solution
D $A g N O_{3}$ solution after boiling with alc.KOH
Chloroform is tested by silver nitrate solution if chloroform is oxidised to phosgene then $H C l$ will also be present which reacts with $A g N O_{3}$ to form white precipitate ( $A g C l$ ). If this reaction occur then chloroform is not used for anaesthesia.
