Solution

The correct option is A sodium arsenite

The water-gas shift reaction (WGSR) describes the reaction of carbon monoxide and water vapour to form carbon dioxide and hydrogen (the mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen is known as water gas)

The carbondioxide obtained in the above reaction is removed by scrubbing with solution of sodium arsenite.
