C Correct answer
Explanation

This option is correct because silica-alumina, zeolites and aluminium hydrosilicate are used in catalytic cracking. Lithium aluminium hydride used as a reducing agent in organic synthesis, especially for the reduction of esters, carboxylic acids, and amides and Anhydrous Aluminium chloride is used as a catalyst for Friedel–Crafts reactions, both acylation and alkylation.
