A positive triiodomethane test (i.e. iodoform test) would produce a pale yellow precipitate (shown left) with an antisceptic smell.

The triiodomethane reaction can be used to distinguish between ethanol and propan-2-ol.

A chemist reacts a compound with neutral iron(III) chloride and obtains a violet solution (shown on the left). What can the chemist conclude about the compound?

Phosphorus pentachloride is a solid reagent (shown left) which can be used in the lab to test for the presence of an -OH group.

Ethene can be oxidised to an alcohol which reacts with phosphorus pentachloride to form
