(B) The reaction of $n$-heptane with $Cr_2O_3/V_2O_5$ at $600\ {}^oC$ is an example of aromatization (or catalytic reforming).In this process,an alkane with $6$ or more carbon atoms undergoes cyclization followed by dehydrogenation to form an aromatic hydrocarbon.For $n$-heptane $(CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_3)$,the cyclization leads to methylcyclohexane,which then loses $3$ molecules of $H_2$ to form toluene $(C_6H_5CH_3)$.

$n$-heptane $\xrightarrow[600\ {}^oC]{Cr_2O_3/V_2O_5}$ ?
