  • Limitations of Ellingham Diagram:
 (a) Kinetics of reduction:
  • Ellingham diagrams are based on thermodynamic concepts, hence, these diagrams suggest whether the reduction of the given metal oxide with a particular reducing agent is possible or not.
  • It does not tell anything about the kinetics of the reduction process.
 (b)  Reactant/product equilibrium:
  • The interpretation of ΔGo is based upon equilibrium constant, K. Thus, it is presumed that the reactants and products are in equilibrium.

                  

  • But, this is not always true because the reactant or product may be solid.
