Solution

The correct option is B

Ammonium Chloride


Ammonium chloride is added to large blocks of ice, for preserving fish and meat while transportation and being sold, to obtain low temperature and for faster solidification of ice during its manufacturing process. Consumption of ammonium chloride is known to be harmful to our intestine so we should thoroughly wash the fish after buying it.
