Description

Application
Chloroform serves as a solvent for extracting organic compounds in chemical synthesis for refrigerants like Freon and in labs for chromatography and nucleic acid purification. It was historically used as an anesthetic but is now restricted due to toxicity.

Purpose
It is used as a solvent in labs for extracting substances in refrigerant production like HCFCs and historically as an anesthetic.

General Description
Chloroform is trichloromethane a non-flammable organic solvent that appears clear with an ether-like smell has a boiling point of 61.2C and density of 1.49 gcm.
