Match the catalyst with the process:

Which of the following is the correct matching of Catalyst & Process?

(i)-(c), (ii)-(d), (iii)-(a), (iv)-(b)

(i)-(a), (ii)-(b), (iii)-(c), (iv)-(d)

(i)-(a), (ii)-(c), (iii)-(b), (iv)-(d)

(i)-(c), (ii)-(a), (iii)-(d), (iv)-(b)

The correct matches based on NCERT are:

$V_2O_5$ (Vanadium(V) oxide): Used in the Contact Process for the oxidation of $SO_2$ to $SO_3$ in the manufacture of sulphuric acid ( $H_2SO_4$ ). Matches (c).
$TiCl_4 + Al(CH_3)_3$ (Ziegler-Natta catalyst): Used for the polymerisation of ethylene to manufacture polyethylene (polythene). Matches (d).
$PdCl_2$ (Palladium(II) chloride): Used in the Wacker process for the oxidation of ethylene (ethene) to ethanal (acetaldehyde). Matches (a).
Nickel complexes: Useful in the polymerisation of alkynes and other organic compounds like benzene. Matches (b).

Therefore, the correct sequence is (i)-(c), (ii)-(d), (iii)-(a), (iv)-(b).
