Question

Identify the correct statements from the following:
I) CO reduces the oxygen carrying ability of blood.
II) Producer gas contains CO and N₂.
III) C-O bond length in CO₂ is 115 pm.

• A. I & III only
• B. I, II & III
• C. I & II only
• D. II & III only

Hint:

CO is harmful due to its ability to bind with hemoglobin, decreasing oxygen availability in the blood.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

- I) Carbon monoxide (CO) binds to hemoglobin, reducing the oxygen-carrying ability of blood.
- II) Producer gas is a mixture of CO and N₂, used in the production of synthetic fuel.
- III) The C-O bond length in CO₂ is 115 pm, which is correct.
Thus, the correct answer is I & III only.
