Consider the following substances: I. Ethanol II. Nitroglycerine III. Urea. Coal gasification technology can be used in the production of how many of them?
Only one
Only two
All the three
None
Solution
Coal gasification produces syngas (CO+H2) that can be converted to ethanol and to ammonia/urea via synthesis routes. Nitroglycerine is made from glycerol + nitric acid and is not produced via coal gasification. Hence two.
