The haloform reaction is a chemical reaction where a haloform ($\\ce{CHX3}$, where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of a methyl ketone (a molecule containing the $\\ce{R-CO-CH3}$ in the presence of a base. R may be alkyl or aryl. The reaction can be used to transform acetyl groups into carboxyl groups or to produce chloroform ($\\ce{CHCl3}$), bromoform ($\\ce{CHBr3}$) or iodoform ($\\ce{CHI3}$)Now write down an example of Iodoform reaction.

AnswerReactivity depends on two factors, steric effect and electronic effect and electronic effect. Lesser the steric hindrance, higher the reactivity.
