The production of dihydrogen obtained from coal gasification can be increased by reacting carbon monoxide of syngas mixture with steam in presence of a catalyst iron chromate. What is this process called?

A

Hydrogen reaction

B

Water - gas shift reaction

C

Coal - gas shift reaction

D

Syn gasification

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`CO_((g))+H_(2(g))overset(673 K)underset("Catalyst")rarr CO_(2(g))+H_(2(g))`
This is called water gas shift reaction.
