AP EAMCET · Chemistry · Thermodynamics (C)

Two statements are given below.
Statement I: The reaction \(\mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_3+2 \mathrm{Al} \rightarrow \mathrm{Al}_2 \mathrm{O}_3+2 \mathrm{Cr}\) \(\left(\Delta G^{\ominus}=-421 \mathrm{~kJ}\right)\) is thermodynamically feasible
Statement II: The above reaction occurs at room temperature.
The correct answer is

  1. A Both the statements I \& II are correct
  2. B Both the statements I \& II are not correct
  3. C Statement I is correct, but statement II is not correct
  4. D Statement I is not correct, but statement II is correct
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Statement I is correct, but statement II is not correct

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Certain amount of activation energy is essential ever for such reactions which are thermodynamically feasible therefore heating is required. So statement I is correct but II is incorrect.
