High purity nitrogen is used in__________________?

Correct answer: C. Both A. & B.

  • A. Making protective gas (95% N2 + 5% H2) for annealing of cold rolled steel strip coils
  • B. Fire fighting purposes
  • C. Both A. & B.
  • D. Neither A. nor (B)

Explanation

Nitrogen is used as an inert protective atmosphere, including the 95% nitrogen and 5% hydrogen mixture for annealing steel coils. Its non-combustible nature also makes it useful in fire-control and fire-fighting systems, so both statements apply.
