Solution

The correct option is C $C O (g) + H_{2} O (g) 673 K - ---- \to C a t a l y s t C O_{2} (g) + H_{2} (g)$
The production of dihydrogen can be increased by reacting carbon monoxide of syngas mixture with steam in the presence of iron chromate as catalyst.
$C O (g) + H_{2} O (g) 673 K - --- \to catalyst C O_{2} (g) + H_{2} (g)$
This is called water-gas shift reaction
