Explanation:

  Tilt meter is a an equipment used to measure very small changes from vertical level. So it is a correct match for blank space in statement A.

  Richter Scale is a scale of measurement of earthquake strength, So it is a correct match for blank space in statement E.

 Mercalli Intensity Scale measures effect of an earthquake, like damage caused.So it is a correct match for blank space in statement C.

  Seismograph is earthquake wave measuring instrument. So it is a correct match for blank space in statement F.

  Correlation Spectrometer (C.O.S.P.E.C.) is used to measure sulfur dioxide content in smoke. So it is a correct match for blank space in statement B.

  Moment Magnitude Scale is an earthquake measuring scale for great earthquakes. So it is a correct match for blank space in statement D.
