Solution

The correct option is C Sodium chlorate
Commerciallychlorine dioxide is prepared by passing ${S O}_{2}$ gas into mixture of sodium chlorate and $H_{2} {S O}_{4}$ having $N a C l$ in traces.
$2 N a C l O_{3} s o d i u m c h l o r a t e + {S O}_{2} + H_{2} {S O}_{4} T r a c e - -- \to N a C l 2 C l O_{2} C h l o r i n e d i o x i d e + 2 N a H {S O}_{4}$
