Correct answer: B

  1. Match each compound with its common use

    (A) Carbon tetrachloride

    • Carbon tetrachloride was historically used in fire extinguishers.
    • So, A→(III)A \to (III)A→(III).

    (B) Methylene chloride

    • Methylene chloride (CH2Cl2\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}_2CH2​Cl2​) is commonly used as a paint remover.
    • So, B→(I)B \to (I)B→(I).

    (C) DDT

    • DDT is a non-biodegradable insecticide.
    • So, C→(IV)C \to (IV)C→(IV).

    (D) Freons

    • Freons are used in refrigerators and air conditioners as refrigerants.
    • So, D→(II)D \to (II)D→(II).
  2. Write the complete matching

    (A)−(III),(B)−(I),(C)−(IV),(D)−(II)(A)-(III),\quad (B)-(I),\quad (C)-(IV),\quad (D)-(II)(A)−(III),(B)−(I),(C)−(IV),(D)−(II)
  3. Compare with the options

    • Option A: Incorrect
    • Option B: Correct
    • Option C: Incorrect
    • Option D: Incorrect
  4. Final answer

    The correct option is B.
