Explanation:

After nationalizing the Suez Canal, Gamal Abdel Nasser used the revenue to fund the construction of the Aswan Dam on the Nile. This project was aimed at boosting Egyptian national pride and the economy, fitting with historical knowledge of Nasser's development initiatives. Other options (hospitals across Africa, Library of Alexandria rebuild, pyramid restoration, Arab world schools) do not align with the known use of Suez Canal revenues for this major infrastructure project.

Answer:

c) Aswan Dam on the Nile
