11. Yes, the reaction is spontaneous at 25°C, but its rate is very slow. The reaction is not spontaneous at 800°C<br />

(ΔG = 0.82 kJ/mol), but the reaction rate is much greater.<br />

Electrochemistry<br />

In oxidation–reduction (redox) reactions, electrons are transferred from one species (the reductant) to another (the<br />

oxidant). This transfer of electrons provides a means for converting chemical energy to electrical energy or vice versa.<br />
