Solution

The correct options are
B CaCO3(s) CaO(s) + CO2(g)
D CO2(g) + C(s) 2CO(g)
In blast furnace, following two endothermic reactions occur.
(1) Reaction between carbon dioxide and carbon to form carbon monoxide.
CO2(g)+C(s)3CO(g)
(2) Decomposition of calcium carbonate to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.
CaCO3(s)CaO(s)+CO2(g)
