Question

State True or False:

Carbon tetrachloride is inflammable.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Carbon tetrachloride is not inflammable, so this is a false statement as $CC{l}_4$ is used in fire extinguisher to create a film that stops the oxygen and hence stops it from burning, so $CC{l}_4$ is not inflammable.

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4​) is poisonous and water-insoluble. It is soluble in ethanol and ether.

Option B is correct.
