Answer:
The correct combination for a noun+gerund is Housekeeping ( House+ keeping). The word 'housekeeping' is a noun.
A gerund is actually a verb that behaves like a noun. Examples are swimming, eating, etc. It can be formed by adding an 'ing' to a noun.
The other words given such as watchman, bleaching powder and mouthwash are all nouns and have no 'ing' attached to them and hence they have no gerund part.
