The fundamental principle of froth flotation process is:

1.	Impurities and metal ore have different wetting properties.
2.	Impurities and metal ore have different solubility.
3.	Impurities and metal ore have different diversity.
4.	Impurities and metal ore have different compressive powers.

Ellingham's diagram for the formation of ${\mathrm{CO}}_2$ is a straight line in the given graph. This is due to:

1. Increase in entropy during ${\mathrm{CO}}_2$ formation.

2. Decrease in entropy during ${\mathrm{CO}}_2$ formation.

3. Entropy remains constant during ${\mathrm{CO}}_2$ formation.

4. Can not be predicted.
