- A oxidation
- B reduction
- C hydrolysis
- D distillation
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) reduction
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Oils reacts with hydrogen in presence of metal catalyst to give saturated glycerides. Thus, vegetable ghee (Dalda) is obtained by hydrogenation (reduction) of oils.
