(2) sulphur dioxide (SO₂)

(3) iron sulphide (FeS)

(4) carbon monoxide (CO)

Consider the following reactions at $1000°C.$

$\left(I\right) Zn\left(s\right)+1/2O_2\left(g\right)\stackrel{∆}{\to }ZnO\left(g\right);$
$∆G°=-360 kJ mo{l}^{-1}$
$\left(II\right) C\left(s\right) +1/2O_2\left(g\right)\stackrel{∆}{\to }Co\left(g\right);$
$∆G°=-460 kJ mo{l}^{-1}$

and choose the correct statement at $1000°C.$

During electrolysis of fused NaCl in order to obtain Na, ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ is liberated at the cathode of Pt while with the cathode of Hg, it forms sodium amalgam. This is because

(I)  Pt is inert

(2)  Hg is a liquid

(3)  More voltage is required to produce ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ at Hg than at Pt

(4)  ${\mathrm{H}}^{\oplus }$ ions are formed rapidly when Hg is used as a cathode
