Solution

The correct option is A $C C l_{3} C O C H_{3}$
The formula of chlorinated acetone produced in the distillation of acetone with bleaching powder is $C C l_{3} C O C H_{3}$ . It is also called trichloroacetone. Bleaching powder provides chlorine for the reaction.

$C a O C l_{2} + H_{2} O \to C a (O H)_{2} + C l_{2}$

$C H_{3} C O C H_{3} + 3 C l_{2} \to C C l_{3} C O C H_{3} + 3 H C l$
