my school is correct the option dictate two similar unlikely rections now stated allisively which is most unlikely .this is common sense if one mole of carbon is not suitable for reducing fe203 why should 2 mole be suitable, so therefore the correct ans is B .

The answer is C.
It has to be CO that will react in that option c instead of C
In fact, option C is not balanced .
