Solution

The correct options are
A CH3CH(OH)CH3
B CH3COCH3
D CH3CH2OH
Haloform reaction is shown by primary alcohol C2H5OH which on partial oxidation gives CH3CHO.
Secondary alcohols with methyl group (CH3CHOHCH3) on oxidation which give methyl ketonic groups show positive result for haloform test. Methyl ketonic compounds show positive result.

Thus, (i), (ii), (iii) give positive result for iodoform test.
