A
Hydrogen chloride is produced by combination of moist hydrogen gas with chlorine in the presence of diffused sunlight
B
Activated carbon is used as a catalyst in the synthesis of hydrogen chloride
💡 Explanation:
Hydrogen chloride is produced by a combination of moist hydrogen gas with chlorine in the presence of diffused sunlight. The reaction should be maintained in diffused but not in direct sunlight as it is an explosive reaction. And not even in dark as it is very slow (negligible). Activated carbon is used as a catalyst in the synthesis of hydrogen chloride.
Hence, options $B$ and $D$ are correct.
