    The document discusses possible mechanisms for the gas-phase reaction of chloroform and bromine to form carbon bromochloroform. It asks (1) for the overall reaction, (2) which mechanism is consistent with a rate law that is first order in chloroform and half order in bromine, and (3) the intermediates in the consistent mechanism.
