Solution

The correct option is D Bosch's process
Bosch's process is used to produce dihydrogen Commercially and it uses Bosch's process for dihydrogen production.
C(s)+2H2O(g)1270 KCO(g)+H2(g)

THEORY
Commercial production of hydrogen:
Bosch process:
C(s)+2H2O(g)1270 KCO(g)+H2(g)
CO(g)+H2(g) -water gas or “syngas”
The process of producing ‘syngas’ from coal is called coal gasification
To increase the production of dihydrogen:
Water-gas shift reaction:
H2(g)+CO(g)+H2O(g)773 K−−−−−−−Fe2O3.Cr2O3CO2(g)+2H2(g)
CO2 is dissolved in water under high pressure (20-25 atm) and the H2 left undissolved is collected.
