Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R
Assertion A: The reduction of a metal oxide is easier if the metal formed is in liquid state than solid state.
Reason R: The value of ΔG⊖\Delta \mathrm{G}^{\ominus} becomes more on negative side as entropy is higher in liquid state than solid state.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A
Option A (Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A) is correct because the reduction of a metal oxide is easier when the metal is in the liquid state due to the higher entropy, making the Gibbs free energy change more negative.
