Answer:

B) Captain Auld sends Douglas to Baltimore so Douglas will be more profitable but in doing so places Douglas in a position where Escape is attainable.

Explanation:

Situational irony is one form of irony where what is expected is different from what happens. That means, the expected result and the outcome contradict with each other.

In his memoir "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglas", Douglas narrates his life of being a slave and then attaining his freedom after escaping. And one instance of situational irony is from Chapter X when he and his friends were caught planning their escape. But despite being captured, Thomas Auld sent Douglas to Baltimore instead of Alabama. In working in the shipyard, he rediscovered the zeal to attain his freedom. And getting back to Baltimore allows him better access to attain his freedom.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
