Match List I with List II :
List I (Transition metal/compound/complex)List II (Catalytic Role)
A. V2O5\text{V}_2\text{O}_5I. Preparation of ammonia from N2/H2\text{N}_2/\text{H}_2 mixture
B. Fe\text{Fe}II. Polymerisation of alkynes
C. PdCl2\text{PdCl}_2III. Preparation of H2SO4\text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 from SO2\text{SO}_2
D. Ni complexIV. Oxidation of ethyne to ethanal

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Options

  1. AA-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
  2. BA-IV, B-I, C-III, D-II
  3. CA-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
  4. DA-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Correct answer

D. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Step-by-step solution

V2O5\text{V}_2\text{O}_5 is used as a catalyst in the Contact process for the oxidation of SO2\text{SO}_2 to SO3\text{SO}_3 during the preparation of H2SO4\text{H}_2\text{SO}_4. Thus, A matches with III.

Finely divided Fe\text{Fe} is used as a catalyst in the Haber process for the preparation of ammonia from N2\text{N}_2 and H2\text{H}_2 mixture. Thus, B matches with I.

PdCl2\text{PdCl}_2 is used as a catalyst in the Wacker process for the oxidation of ethene (referred to as ethyne in the given options) to ethanal. Thus, C matches with IV.

Ni\text{Ni} complexes are used as catalysts for the polymerisation of alkynes (e.g., polymerisation of ethyne to cyclooctatetraene). Thus, D matches with II.

The correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II.

Answer: A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
