A) Catalytic reduction of CO in the presence of \[ZnO,C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]
B) The reaction of\[C{{H}_{4}}\]with water vapour in the presence of Ni catalyst at\[900{}^\circ C\]
C) By the reaction of formaldehyde with\[LiAl{{H}_{4}}\]
D) By the reaction of\[HCHO\]with aqueous\[KOH\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Commercially, methanol is manufactured by the catalytic reduction of CO in the presence of\[ZnO,C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]. \[\underbrace{CO+{{H}_{2}}}_{water\text{ }gas}+{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow[{}]{C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}-ZnO}\underset{methanol}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}OH}}\,\]
