Solution
The correct option is B Producer gas Water gas and producer gas are very important industrial fuels.
Water gas is a mixture of CO and H2 and producer gas is a mixture of CO and N2.
Water gas is prepared by passing steam over hot coke. C(s)+H2O(g)473−1273K⟶CO(g)+H2(g)
Producer gas is prepared by passing air over hot coke instead of steam 2C(s)+O2(g)+4N2(g)1273K⟶2CO(g)+4N2(g)
