Question

25. Metal X is found in nature as its sulphide XS. It is used in the galvanisation of iron and
. It is used in the galvanisation of iron articles. Identify the
metal X. How will you convert this sulphide ore into the metal? Explain with equations
​

Answer 1

Answer:

the X is metal zinc.

conversion can be done using roasting method .

chemical equation : 2ZnS + 3O2 -> 2ZnO + 2So2.

the zinc oxide ( ZnO ) can be converted into Zn by using reductants like carbon.

equation : ZnO + C -> Zn +CO

Answer 2

Answer:

hey mate this is your answer

x is zinc

zns can be converted to its oxide by heating in maximum supply of oxygen

and then zno can be converted to zn by using reducing agent such as carbon.

you can check the equations in the above photo

hope it helps....
