The plot shows the variation of −\ln K_p versus temperature for the two reactions. M(s)+1/2O_2(g)\toMO(s) and C(s)+1/2O_2(g)\toCO(s) Identify the correct statement : [Main 9 Apr 2016]

Correct Answer is : At T < 1200 K, the reaction MO(s)+C(s)→M(s)+CO(g) is spontaneous

At T > 1200 K, carbon will reduce MO(s) to M(s).

At T < 1200 K, the reaction MO(s)+C(s)\toM(s)+CO(g) is spontaneous

At T < 1200 K, oxidation of carbon is unfavourable.

Oxidation of carbon is favourable at all temperatures.
