is -25.0 kJ per mol 02. In the compound ZO(e), Z has a +2 formal charge. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? O Zcannot be oxidized to ZO because Z is more stable than ZzO at 400 °C or any Tabove it. O zo cannot be reduced back to Z at any temperature because reduction of ZO to Z has +AG. O The oxidation of Z with O2 is exothermic. The oxidation of Z with 02 is marked by an increase in entropy.

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