Free energies of formation `(Delta_(f) G^(Ө))` of `MgO(s)` and `CO_((g))` at `1273 K` and `2273 K` are given below :
`Delta_(f) G^(Ө) (MgO_((s) )) = -941 kJ//mol at 1273 K`
`Delta_(f) G^(Ө) (MeO_((s))) = -314 kJ//mol at 2273 K`
`Delta_(f) G^(Ө) (CO_((g))) = - 439 kJ//mol at at 1273 K`
`Delta_(f) G^(Ө) (CO_((g))) = -628 kJ//mol at 2273 K`
On the basis of above data, predict the temperature at which carbon can be used as a reducing for agent `MgO_((s))`.
