Zinc can be extracted from zinc oxide in a furnace. Three of the reactions in the furnace are shown.
Reaction 1: 2C+O2→2CO\mathrm{2C + O_{2} \rightarrow 2CO}2C+O2→2CO
Reaction 2: ZnO+CO→Zn+CO2\mathrm{ZnO + CO \rightarrow Zn + CO_{2}}ZnO+CO→Zn+CO2
Reaction 3: CO2+C→2CO\mathrm{CO_{2} + C \rightarrow 2CO}CO2+C→2CO
Statement 1: Carbon is reduced in reaction 1.
Statement 2: Carbon dioxide is reduced in reaction 3.
Statement 3: Carbon monoxide is oxidised in reaction 2.
Which statements are correct?
2 only
1 and 2 only
2 and 3 only
1, 2 and 3
