General Principles and processes of Isolation of Elements
normal
The Ellingham diagram for zinc, magnesium and carbon converting into corresponding oxides is shown below.
At ........ $^oC$ temperature, zinc and carbon have equal affinity for oxygen .
A
$1000$
B
$1500$
C
$500$
D
$1200$
Solution
As both oxides of zinc and carbon, i.e., $ZnO$ and $CO$ met at $1000^{\circ} C$ in graph, so at this temperature, both carbon and zinc have equal affinity with oxygen.
