Question:
One method of producing hydrogen gas on a large scale is by the reaction of methane with steam. Which of the following equation, correctly shows this reaction?

Option A):
4CH₄(g)    + H₂O(g)  →  C₂H₄(g) + C₂H₆(g) +O₂(g)
Option B):
CH₄(g)    + H₂O(g)  →  CO(g) + 3H₂(g)
Option C):
CH₄(g)    + H₂O(g)  →  HCHO(g) + 2H₂(g)
Option D):
CH₄(g)    + H₂O(g)  →  CH₃ OH(l) + H₂(g)

Correct Answer is Option B):
CH₄(g)    + H₂O(g)  →  CO(g) + 3H₂(g)
