B.

barium chloride solution

C.

potassium hydroxide solution

D.

sodium hydroxide solution

Correct answer is C

The electrolyte used in the Nickel-Iron (NiFe) accumulator is potassium hydroxide solution. It is a non-flammable, non-toxic, and relatively stable electrolyte. It is also a good conductor of electricity, which is important for the operation of the battery.
