Medium
Match the industrial process in Group-1 with the catalyst in Group-2. Group-1: P-Ethylene polymerisation, Q-Petroleum feedstock cracking, R-Oxidation of SO2 to SO3, S-Hydrogenation of oil. Group-2: I-Nickel, II-Vanadium pentoxide, III-Zeolite, IV-Aluminium triethyl with titanium chloride promoter. The correct combination is
- P-IV, Q-III, R-II, S-I
- BP-I, Q-IV, R-III, S-II
- CP-I, Q-II, R-III, S-IV
- DP-II, Q-III, R-IV, S-I
Explanation
Ethylene polymerisation → Ziegler-Natta (IV). Cracking → zeolite (III). SO2→SO3 → V2O5 (II). Oil hydrogenation → Ni (I).
