Moderate

The method in which more steam is passed through the water Gas to oxidize CO to Carbon Dioxide which is then more soluble in water than Hydrogen gas and gets separated is called______.

Correct answer: B. Bosch Process

  • A. liquification process
  • B. Bosch Process
  • C. Fragmentation
  • D. Thermal decomposition

Explanation

In the Bosch process, steam reacts with carbon monoxide in water gas: CO + H2O → CO2 + H2. Carbon dioxide dissolves readily in water, leaving hydrogen to be collected. The likely mistake is choosing liquefaction, which is a physical separation method and does not oxidize CO.

About Reactions of Group IV Elements

Group IV, or Group 14, chemistry covers the trends from carbon and silicon to tin and lead, including their reactions with oxygen, halogens, water, acids and alkalis. It also examines the structures and properties of their oxides and chlorides, oxidation states, and the inert pair effect, rather than treating all members as equally metallic.
