To determine the maximal flow from node 1 to node 7, we need to find the maximum flow capacity from node 1 to node 7 along any path. One possible path is 1-2-4-5-7, which has a flow capacity of 900 + 700 + 200 + 0 = 1800 gallons/hour. Therefore, the maximal flow from node 1 to node 7 is 1800 gallons/hour, which corresponds to choice C.
