Solution

The correct option is C natural gas
Fossil fuels are the dominant source of industrial hydrogen. Carbon dioxide can be separated from natural gas with a 60-70% efficiency for hydrogen production and from other hydrocarbons to varying degrees of efficiency.

Specifically, bulk hydrogen is usually produced by the steam reforming of methane or natural gas.
