    Which of the following statements about the advantage of roasting of sulphide ore before reduction is not true?

    A)  \[\Delta G_{f}^{o}\]of the sulphide is greater than \[C{{S}_{2}}\]and\[{{H}_{2}}S\]

    B)  \[\Delta G_{f}^{o}\]is negative for roasting of sulphide ore to oxide

    C)  Roasting of the sulphide to oxide is ther-modynamically feasible

    D)  Carbon and hydrogen are suitable reducing agents for metal sulphides

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     \[\Delta {{G}_{f}}^{o}\]for sulphides\[>\Delta {{G}_{f}}^{o}\]of \[C{{S}_{2}}\]and \[{{H}_{2}}S,\]and thus, C and\[{{H}_{2}}\]cannot reduce metal sulphide.
