Question

$Redhotcoke+Steam\stackrel{1000{}^{o}C}{\to }X\underset{Catalyst\left(Y\right)}{\overset{Steam,500{}^{o}C}{\to }}C{O}_2+H_2$
Correct statement(s) about above process is/are:

• A. The reaction sequences refers to Lane's process
• B. $\left(X\right)$ is water gas
• C. Catalyst $\left(Y\right)$ is $F{e}_2{O}_3+C{r}_2{O}_3$
• D. $C{O}_2$ is removed by passing the gaseous mixture through water under high pressure of 25 atm

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C), (D)

The correct options are
B $\left(X\right)$ is water gas
C Catalyst $\left(Y\right)$ is $F{e}_2{O}_3+C{r}_2{O}_3$
D $C{O}_2$ is removed by passing the gaseous mixture through water under high pressure of 25 atm

The sequences given is Bosch's process.
$Redhotcoke+Steam\stackrel{1000{}^{o}C}{\to }\underset{Watergas}{CO+H_2}\underset{F{e}_2{O}_3+C{r}_2{O}_3}{\overset{Steam,500{}^{o}C}{\to }}C{O}_2+2H_2$

Mixture of $CO$ and $H_2$ is known as water gas.
