Chapter 17, Problem 58P

In the presence of excess base and excess halogen, a methyl ketone is converted to a carboxylate ion. The reaction is known as the haloform reaction because one of the products is haloform (chloroform, bromoform, or iodoform). Before spectroscopy became a routine analytical tool, the haloform reaction served as a test for methyl ketones: the formation of iodoform, a bright yellow compound, signaled that a methyl ketone was present. Why do only methyl ketones form a haloform?

drug synthesis from Reimer-Tiemann reaction
The formate and methoxide ions are both formed by removing a hydrogen atom from a corresponding neutral compound. Given that each process involves the breaking of an O-H bond, explain why the formate ion is so much more stable than the methoxide ion.
