Statement (A) \(\mathrm{Mg}\) can reduce \(\mathrm{Al}_2 \mathrm{O}_3\) above \(1350^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\).
Statement (B) Al can reduce \(\mathrm{MgO}\) below \(1350^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\).
The correct answer is

  1. A Both (A) and (B)
    are wrong.
  2. B (A) is correct, but (B) is wrong.
  3. C (A) is wrong, but (B) is correct.

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Both (A) and (B)
are wrong.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{Mg}\) can reduce \(\mathrm{AI}_2 \mathrm{O}_3\) below \(1350^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) accordingly to Ellingham diagram. On the other hand, AI can reduce \(\mathrm{MgO}\) above \(1350^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Thus, both statements \((\mathrm{A})\) and \((\mathrm{B})\) are…
