Question

Which of the following is not a polyhalogen compound?

• A. Chloroform
• B. Freon
• C. Carbon tetrachloride
• D. Chloro benzene

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Chloro benzene

Chloro benzene $C_6{H}_5-Cl$ is not a polyhalogen compound. It is monohalogen compound. Chloroform $CHC{l}_3$, freon $C{F}_{2}C{l}_2$ and carbon tetrachloride $CC{l}_4$ are polyhalogen compounds. Hence, the option $\left(D\right)$ is the correct answer.
