Chloroform is a colorless liquid with a pleasant, mild odor and slightly sweet taste. It only burns when it reaches a very high temperature. In the past, chloroform was used as an inhalation anesthetic during surgery, but it is no longer used as such. Today, chloroform is used to make other chemicals, and small amounts of chloroform can also be formed when chlorine is added to water. Other names for chloroform are chloroform and trichloromethane.
chloroform formula for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR)
Chloroform is a clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic odor. Denser than water (12.3 lbs/gal), slightly soluble in water. So sink into the water. Non-flammable in most cases, but will burn under extreme conditions. May cause illness through inhalation, skin absorption or ingestion. Used as a solvent, in the manufacture of other chemicals, and as a fumigant.
Cameo Chemicals chloroform formula
Chloroform is a one-carbon compound in which three hydrogens in methane are replaced by chlorine. It has the effects of inhalation anesthetics, non-polar solvents, carcinogens, central nervous system drugs and refrigerants. It is a one-carbon compound and a member of the methyl chloride group.

drug warning

Chloroform-anesthetized patients had an increased incidence of cardiac arrhythmias during surgery compared to other anesthetics with a vapor concentration of 22,500 ppm.
