Explanation

Nickel acts as a catalyst in hydrogenation of oils to fats. Vanadium pentoxide is used as a catalyst in the manufacture of H2SO4 by contact process. Titanium chloride (Ziegler-Natta catalyst) is used in the manufacture of high density polythene. Co-Th alloy is used in Fischer Tropsch in process in the synthesis of gasoline.
