Answer
Correct option: A.
Oxidation of ammonia to form $HN{O_3}$
a
(a)Platinum acts as catalyst in the oxidation of ammonia to form nitric oxide. This reaction is used in the Ostwald’s method of nitric acid preparation

$4N{H_3} + 5{O_2}\mathop {\xrightarrow{{Pt}}}\limits_{750\,^oC} 4NO + 6{H_2}O$
$2NO + {O_2} \to 2N{O_2}$
$4N{O_2} + {O_2} + 2{H_2}O \to 4HN{O_3}$
