Question

Match Column-I (Type of Coal) and Column-II (Carbon content percentage) in it.

$\begin{array}{cc}\text{Column - I}& \text{Column \_II}\\ \left(Typeofcoal\right)& \text{(Carbon content)}\\ \text{a. Anthracite}& \text{(i) 60\%}\\ \text{b. Bituminous}& \text{(ii) 70\%}\\ \text{c. Lignite}& \text{(iii) 85\%}\\ \text{d. Peat}& \text{(iv) 95\%}\end{array}$

• A.
  a(i), b(ii), c(iii), d(iv)
• B.
  a(ii), b(i), c(iv), d(iii)
• C.
  a(iv), b(iii), c(ii), d(i)
• D.
  a(iv), b(iii), c(i), d(ii)

Answer 1

The correct option is C

a(iv), b(iii), c(ii), d(i)
The carbon content in different types of coal can be correctly matched as:

Anthracite — upto 95%
Bituminous — upto 85%
Lignite — upto 70%
Peat — upto 60%

Hence, the correct answer is option (c).
