Chem (Lab) Act14

The document lists 5 halogen compounds, providing the formula and common uses for each: chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, methyl chloride, iodoform, and dichlorodiflouromethane. It then provides two equations for preparing ethyl iodide, either through the reaction of ethanol and hydrogen iodide, or the action of phosphorus iodide on ethanol.
