D Correct answer
Explanation

In Deacon’s process, chlorine gas is prepared by oxidation of hydrogen chloride gas by atmospheric oxygen in the presence of CuCl2 (catalyst) at 723 K. In Haber process, finely divided iron containing molybdenum or alumina is used as a catalyst. In the manufacture of H2SO4 by lead chamber process, NO is used as catalyst. Catalyst in Ostwald process is platinum gauze.
