Which of the following type of compounds act as an inhibitor for hydrogen-ion reduction? Correct Answer Sulfide ions, phosphorous and arsenic compounds

Hydrogen atoms diffuse into steel and other metals, which results in hydrogen blistering and hydrogen embrittlement. These inhibitors such as sulfide ions (polysulfide ion), phosphorous, and arsenic compounds reduce the rate of hydrogen-ion reduction.

Consider the following grammar (that admits a series of declarations, followed by expressions) and the associated syntax directed translation (SDT) actions, given as pseudo-code: P → D* E* D → int ID {record that ID.lexeme is of type int} D → bool ID { record that ID.lexeme is of type bool} E → E1 + E2 {check that E1.type = E2.type = int; set E.type := int} E → !E1 {check that E1.type = bool; set E.type := bool} E → ID {set E.type := int} With respect to the above grammar; which one of the following choices is correct?
