NEETChemistryHydrogen
How can the production of dihydrogen, obtained from ‘coal gasification’, be increased?
Options
- AThe yield of dihydrogen (obtained from coal gasification) can be increased by reacting carbon monoxide (formed
- BBy reducing the temperature and pressure during the gasification process.
- CBy using oxygen to promote the gasification reaction.
- DBy adding less carbon to the coal feedstock.
Correct answer
A. The yield of dihydrogen (obtained from coal gasification) can be increased by reacting carbon monoxide (formed
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (A) The yield of dihydrogen (obtained from coal gasification) can be increased by reacting carbon monoxide (formed during the reaction) with steam in the presence of iron chromate as a catalyst.
