Consider two chemical reactions (A)(A) and (B)(B) that take place during metallurgical process:
(A)(A) ZnCO3(s)→ΔZnO(s)+Co2(g)\mathrm{ZnC}{\mathrm{O}_\mathrm{3}}\mathrm{(s)}\xrightarrow{\mathrm{\Delta }}\mathrm{ZnO (s) + C}{\mathrm{o}_\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{(g)}
(B)(B) 2ZnS(s)+3O2(g)→Δ2ZnO(s)+2SO2(g)\mathrm{2ZnS (s) + 3}{\mathrm{O}_\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{(g)}\xrightarrow{\mathrm{\Delta }}\mathrm{2ZnO (s) + 2S}{\mathrm{O}_\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{(g)}
The correct option of names given to them respectively is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
(A)(A) is calcination and (B)(B) is roasting
Option A ((A) is calcination and (B) is roasting) is correct because reaction (A) involves heating a carbonate in the absence of air, while reaction (B) involves heating a sulfide in the presence of air.
