Answer»

The correct choice is (a) ONE

To elaborate: In CO2 moulding, mould of sand is hardened by passing of Co2 for about one minute. The Co2 gas FORMS a WEAK acid that hydrolyzes the sodium silicate (Na2O, SiO2) solution to FORM amorphous silica gel which acts as the bond and sodium silicate itself also provides some bonding action.
