Which of the following is not correct observation on Ellingham diagram ?

Answer»

A metal can reduce the oxide of other metal which LIES above it in ELLINGHAM diagram .
CO is more effective than C as a reducing agent below `710^(@)C`
`DeltaG^(@)` of metal OXIDES is higher than that of `CO_(2)` hence oxidation of metal suphides to oxides is not favourable.
Need for conversion of metal sulphide to metal oxide before reduction can be explained thermodynamically.

Solution :`DeltaG^(@)` of metal oxides is LOWER than of`CO_(2)` hence oxidation of metal suphide to metal oxide is favourable.
