Solution

When Cl2 gas is passed into a mixture containing Br and I and CHCl3, I2(violet) first apears in CHCl3 layer.
The decreasing order for the reducing power of halide ions is I>Br>Cl>F
Thus, chlorine can displace bromine and iodine fromn their salts.
Silmilarly bromine can displace iodine from its salt.
2I+Cl22Cl+I2
2Br+Cl22Cl+Br2
Thus, I2 is formed in preference of Br2 . Iodine is violet in colour. Hence, CHCl3 layer appears violet. Hence, the given statement is true.
