In the manufacture of hydrogen from water gas `(CO + H_2)`, which of the following is correct statement?

A

`CO` is oxidized to `CO_2` with steam in the presence of a catalyst followed by absorption of `CO_2` in alkali.

B

CO and `H_2` are separated based on difference in their densities

C

Hydrogen is isolated by diffusion.

D

`H_2` is removed by occlusion with Pd.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Manufacture of hydrogen from water gas
`C(s) + H_2O(g) rarr CO(g) + H_2(g)`
`CO + H_2O overset(673K)rarr CO_2 + H_2`
In the above reaction CO is oxidised `CO_2` with steam in the presence of a catalyst following adsorption of `CO_2` in alkali.
