The equation that represents 'coal gasification' is
Options
- ACO ( g )+ H ₂ O ( g ) [ catalyst ] 673 ~K CO ₂( ~g )+ H ₂( ~g )
- BC (s) + H ₂ O ( g ) 1273 ~K CO ( g )+ H ₂( ~g )
- C2 C ( s )+ O ₂( ~g )+4 ~N ₂( ~g ) 1273 ~K 2 CO ( g )+4 ~N ₂( ~g )
- DCH ₄( ~g )^ + H ₂ O ( g ) 1270 ~K CO ( g )+3 H ₂( ~g )
Correct answer
B. C (s) + H ₂ O ( g ) 1273 ~K CO ( g )+ H ₂( ~g )
Step-by-step solution
Coal gasification is the process of producing coal gas, a type of syn gas (mixture of carbon monocxide ( CO ) and Hydrogen ( H ₂ ) from coal. 3 C ( i.e., coal) + H ₂ O + O ₂ H ₂+3 CO ₂ .
