Explanation:Hii frnd here is ur answer.

The abolition of slavery:

(ii) Finally in Convention of 1794, a law was passed to free all slaves in the French colonies. But it was short term measure as 10 years later, it was again introduced by Nepolean.

(iii) Plantation owners understand their freedom as including the right to enslave African Negroes in pursuit of their economic interests. Slavery was finally abolished in French Colonies in 1848.
