Solution

The correct option is C NH2CONH2+H2O2NH3+CO2
Urea is a major fertilizer used worldwide. It provides nitrogen to the soil by decomposing to ammonia and CO2 when acted on by urease, an enzyme in soils. Then, ammonia is taken by the plants.

NH2CONH2+H2O2NH3+CO2

Hence the correct option is B.
