Q. Assertion : $CHCl _{3}$ and $CH _{3} OH$ are miscible.
Reason : One of them is polar.

AIIMSAIIMS 2001Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure

Solution:

$CHCl_3$ and $CH_3 —OH$ are miscible due to intermolecular van der Waals force of attraction. However, $CH_3OH$ and $CHCl_3$ are polar molecules.
