What is Understanding Ellingham Diagrams about?

Ellingham diagrams plot the change in Gibbs free energy (ΔG) versus temperature for oxidation reactions of metals. They show the relative stability of metal oxides and the conditions required to reduce them. Lines on the diagram indicate equilibrium oxygen partial pressures and the necessary ratio of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide for carbon reduction of oxides at different temperatures. The position and slope of lines reveals how easily oxides can be reduced by different metals and gases. The diagram is
