Pls answer ques
13. Consider the following Ellingham diagram for carbon
Graphic
Which of the statement is incorrect for the above Ellingham diagram?
(A) Upto 710°C, the reaction of formation of CO, is energetically more favourable but above 710°C, the formation of CO is preferred
(B) Carbon can be used to reduce any metal oxide at a sufficiently high temperature.
(C) Carbon reduces many oxides at elevated temperature because ∆G° vs temperature line has a negative slope
(P)
Dear student,
Option (B) is incorrect
Reason : carbon can reduces only those metals which are either in middle or in lower position of electro chemical series .
