Correct Answer: Option B

Explanation

The reaction between ethanol and aqueous sodium mono-oxoiodate (I) (also known as sodium hypoiodite,) is a classic chemical test called the iodoform test. Sodium oxoiodate (I) acts as both an oxidizing and halogenating agent. 

• Ethanol is first oxidized to ethanal.
• The ethanal further reacts with the iodine species to form triiodomethane (CH\(_3\)I), commonly known as iodoform.
• Triiodomethane is a bright yellow crystalline solid with a distinct, medicinal, or "characteristic" smell, which serves as a positive identification for alcohols containing the CH\(_3\)CH(OH) - group.
