Question

Match List-I with List-II. List-I: A. Haber process, B. Wacker oxidation, C. Wilkinson catalyst, D. Ziegler catalyst. List-II: (I) Fe catalyst, (II) PdCl2, (III) [(PPh3)3RhCl], (IV) TiCl4 with Al(CH3)3.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A. A-I, B-II, C-IV, D-III
  2. B. A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV
  3. C. A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV (Correct answer)
  4. D. A-I, B-IV, C-III, D-II

Correct Answer

Option C — A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV.

Key Points

  • Haber process (NH$_3$ synthesis) uses an Fe catalyst (I).
  • Wacker oxidation (ethene $\to$ ethanal) uses PdCl$_2$ (II).
  • Wilkinson's catalyst is [(PPh$_3$)$_3$RhCl] (III).
  • Ziegler-Natta catalyst is TiCl$_4$ with Al(CH$_3$)$_3$ (IV).
