31. Below point ' A ' FeO can

(i) Be reduced by carbon monoxide only. 

(ii) Be reduced by both carbon monoxide and carbon.

(iii) Be reduced by carbon only.

(iv) Not be reduced by both carbon and carbon monoxide.

 $\frac{dE}{dT}$ is the temperature Co-efficient of cell. The cell having less variation of EMF, with respect to temperature have high efficiency.

Below 1350° C, Mg can reduce Al₂O₃ and above 1350°C, Al can reduce MgO (from Ellingham diagram).

Melting and boiling point of Mg are lower than that of Al.

In ores/mineral available earthy and undesired impurities are gangue

Sol. Reactivity towards ${\mathrm{A}\mathrm{g}\mathrm{N}\mathrm{O}}_3$  depend on stability of carbocation formed

Leaching involves the given reaction,

$4Au\left(s\right)+8C{N}^{-}\left(aq\right)+2H_{2}O\left(aq\right)+O_2\left(g\right)\to 4{\left[Au{\left(CN\right)}_2\right]}^{-}\left(aq\right)+4O{H}^{-}\left(aq\right)$              

Here, O₂ is required for formation of Au (l) cyanide complex but no complex in absence of O₂.

$2{\left[Au{\left(CN\right)}_2\right]}^{-}\left(aq\right)+Zn\left(s\right)\to {\left[Zn{\left(CN\right)}_4\right]}^{2-}\left(aq\right)+2Au\left(s\right)$                

In above displacement reaction, Zn is oxidized.
