At 400 °C, the AG an for the oxidation of a monoatomic liquid element Z in the presence of 02(9) forming ZOo) is -25.0 kJ per mol 02. In the compound ZO Z has a +2 formal charge. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? The oxidation of Z with O2 is marked by an increase in entropy. O Z cannot be oxidized to ZO because Z is more stable than ZO at 400 °C or any T above it. O The oxidation of Z with O2 is exothermic. O Zo cannot be reduced back to Z at any temperature because reduction of ZO to Z has +AG.

Question
At 400 °C, the AG an for the oxidation of a monoatomic liquid element Z in the presence of 02(g) forming ZO) is -25.0 kJ per mol O2. In the compound ZOs, Z has
a +2 formal charge. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
The oxidation of Z with O2 is marked by an increase in entropy.
O Z cannot be oxidized to Z0 because Z is more stable than ZO at 400 °C or any T above it.
O The oxidation of Z with 02 is exothermic,
O zo cannot be reduced back to Z at any temperature because reduction of ZO to Z has +AG.
