DeltaG^(@) vs T plot in the Ellingham's diagram slopes downwards for the reactions

Answer»

`Mg+(1)/(2)O_(2)rarrMgO`
`2Ag+(1)/(2)O_(2)rarrAg_(2)O`
`C+(1)/(2)O_(2)rarrCO`
`CO+(1)/(2)O_(2)rarrCO_(2)`

Solution :
Reaction (i) : `M_((s))+(1)/(2)O_(2(g))rarrMO_((s))" (where M represents METAL)"`
Reaction (ii) :`CO_((g))+(1)/(2)O_(2(g))rarrCO_(2(g))`
Reaction (iii) :`C_((s))+(1)/(2)O_(2(g))rarrCO_((g))`
`DeltaG^(@)` vs T PLOT in the Ellingham's diagram SLOPES DOWNWARDS for the reaction (i) and reaction (ii). For reaction (iii), `DeltaG^(@)` vs T plot in Ellingham's diagram slopes upwards.
