Solution

The correct option is D $C O C l_{2}$
Phosgene is the chemical compound with the formula $C O C l_{2}$ . This colorless gas gained infamy as a chemical weapon during World War I where it was responsible for about $85$ % of the $100, 000$ deaths caused by chemical weapons. It is also a valued industrial reagent and building block in synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds
