In Mond’s process the carbonyl complex is ______ than the metal. Choose the correct option.
More stable at a higher temperature.
Less stable at a higher temperature.
Equally stable at a higher temperature
Less stable at a lower temperature.
In Mond’s process, the carbonyl complex is less stable at a higher temperature and so is decomposed into metal and CO and is used to obtain pure metal.
Hence option 2 is correct
