Solution

The answer is d. improper setting of alarm clock. This is not a cause that led to the disaster at Bhopal in 1984. The disaster was caused by a combination of technical and operational failures, including the non-functioning of the refrigeration unit and flare tower, the pouring of water into the MIC tank, and the technical incompetence of the plant engineer. The setting of an alarm clock would not have a direct impact on the functioning of a chemical plant and therefore is not a relevant factor in this context.
