Solution

The correct option is D Chloroform
The reactions involved are-
$C a O C l_{2} + H_{2} O \to C a (O H)_{2} + C l_{2}$
$C_{2} H_{5} O H + [O] \to C H_{3} C H O$
$C H_{3} C H O + C l_{2} \to C C l_{3} H O$
$C C l_{3} C H O + C a (O H)_{2} \to C H C l_{3} + (H C O O)_{2} C a$

Hence the product formed is having Chloroform and the correct option is A.
