For a reaction 4M(s)+nO2(g)→2M2On(s)4M\left(s\right) + {nO}_{2}\left(g\right) \to 2{M}_{2}{O}_{n}\left(s\right)

The free energy change is plotted as a function of temperature. The temperature below which the oxide is stable could be inferred from the plot as the point at which :

Options

  1. Athe slope change from negative to positive
  2. Bthe free energy change show a change from negative to positive value
  3. Cthe slope changes from positive to negative
  4. Dthe slope changes from positive to zero

Correct answer

B. the free energy change show a change from negative to positive value

Step-by-step solution

For oxide to be stable its ΔG\Delta G of formation value should be negative.

Gibbs free energy, also known as the Gibbs function, Gibbs energy, or free enthalpy, is a quantity that is used to measure the maximum amount of work done in a thermodynamic system when the temperature and pressure are kept constant.
