In the manufacture of sulphuric acid from elemental sulphur, the following sequence of major operations is followed ?
Correct answer: A. Furnace → converter → absorber
- A. Furnace → converter → absorber
- B. Furnace → evaporator → absorber
- C. Furnace → converter → evaporator
- D. Converter → furnace → absorber
