Choose the correct answer from the options given below :-
- (A)A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
- (B)A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
- (C)A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
- (D)A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I✓ Correct
Answer: (D)
Solution
A cobalt catalyst is employed in converting synthesis gas to methanol. Synthesis gas, the mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, is obtained by the gasification of coal. A nickel catalyst is used in generating water gas. Brine, on electrolysis, yields hydrogen and chlorine. The correct matching pairs the cobalt catalyst with methanol production, syngas with coal gasification, the nickel catalyst with water gas production and brine with hydrogen and chlorine production.
