Which of the following statements are NOT correct? A. Hydrogen is used to reduce heavy metal oxides to metals. B. Heavy water is used to study reaction mechanism. C. Hydrogen is used to make saturated fats from oils. D. The H-H bond dissociation enthalpy is lowest as compared to a single bond between two atoms of any element. E. Hydrogen reduces oxides of metals that are more active than iron. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
B, C, D, E only
B, D only
D, E only
A, B, C only
To determine which statements are NOT correct, let's analyze each statement:A. Hydrogen is used to reduce heavy metal oxides to metals.• This statement is correct. Hydrogen can reduce metal oxides like copper(II) oxide to copper.B. Heavy water is used to study reaction mechanism.• This statement is correct. Heavy water (DO) is often used in kinetic isotope effect studies to understand reaction mechanisms.C. Hydrogen is used to make saturated fats from oils.• This statement is correct. Hydrogenation is the process of adding hydrogen to unsaturated fats to make them saturated.D. The H-H bond dissociation enthalpy is lowest as compared to a single bond between two atoms of any element.• This statement is incorrect. The H-H bond has a high bond dissociation enthalpy compared to many other single bonds.E. Hydrogen reduces oxides of metals that are more active than iron.• This statement is incorrect. Hydrogen cannot reduce oxides of metals that are more active than iron, as these metals have a higher affinity for oxygen.Based on the analysis, the incorrect statements are D and E.Therefore, the correct option is Option 3: D, E only.
