I can't find the first one but the second one is a Smart AC power adapter (45 watt) - 4.5mm barrel connector, non-power factor correcting (NPFC) - Requires 3-wire AC power cord with C5 connector.

 

which supports Chromebook G3 and G4 machines plus hundreds other machines BUT not G2 machines as shown

Therefore I would not try to swap them. It short, please don't try to use G2 adapter on G3 machine.

 

Regards.

45w 19.5v at 2.31A which is only  0.06A different than this replacement for the G3
