Detailed Solution

$C C l_{4}$ is used as a fire extinguisher, Pure $C H C l_{3}$ does not give white precipitate with $A g N O_{3}$ solution.

Pure chloroform does not give white precipitate with silver nitrate. That's because chloroform does not contain choride ions and it has just covalent bond,non ionizable carbon-chlorine bonds. It's insoluble in water, but even if it were soluble, the carbon-chlorine bonds would not ionize. So, no AgCl precipitate.
