A

`SiO_2, CO_2`

B

`SiO_2, CO`

C

`SiO_2, N_2`

D

`CaO, CO_2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`SiO_2` is a compound of oxygen and silicon, the two most abundant eleinents of earth.s crust and is used in building construction. `SiO_2 +2C rarr Si+2CO` (poisonous gas and a stable diatomic molecule)
