Explanation:

Which of the statements about the reaction below are incorrect ?

2PbO(s) + C(s) -> 2Pb(s) + CO2(g)

(a) Lead is getting reduced.

(b) Carbon dioxide is getting oxidised.

(c) Carbon is getting oxidised.

(d) Lead oxide is getting reduced.

(1) (a) and (b) ✔

(2) (a) and (c)

(3) (a), (b) and (c)

(4) All

Explaination -

Oxidation -

  • Loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation number, Addition of Oxygen, Removal of Hydrogen.

And

Reduction -

  • Gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation number, Removal of Oxygen, Addition of Hydrogen.

In this question,

In Lead oxide (PbO), Oxygen is removed,

it means,

  • Lead Oxide is getting reduced.

And

In Carbon (C), Oxygen is Added,

It means,

  • Carbon is getting oxidised.

Hence,

Lead Oxide is getting reduced.

And

Carbon is getting oxidised are correct statements.

Then,

Carbon dioxide is getting oxidised.

And

Lead is getting reduced are incorrect statements.
