To solve the question, we need to identify the catalyst 'C' based on the information provided about the gases 'X', 'Y', and 'Z'. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step 1: Analyze the properties of gas 'Z' - The problem states that gas 'Z' gives dense white fumes with hydrogen chloride (HCl). This indicates that gas 'Z' likely forms a product that is a solid or a liquid that appears as white fumes when it reacts with HCl. - Additionally, gas 'Z' turns red litmus paper blue, indicating that it is basic in nature. **Hint:** Look for gases that are basic and can react with HCl to form a white solid or vapor. ...
