(a) The electrolysed chemical compound is aluminium oxide, which on electrolysation obtains aluminium metal. During the process, oxygen gas is evolved.  

(b) In the molten state, sodium chloride is electrolysed to obtain sodium metal. In this process, chlorine gas is evolved.

(c) When calamine ore is calcined, carbon dioxide is produced.

(d) When cinnabar ore is roated, sulphur oxide gas is produced.

Explanation:

(a) The equation for aluminium oxide decomposition is:

2 A l_{2} O_{2}(l) \rightarrow 4 A l(l)+3 O_{2}(g)

Aluminium oxide\ Aluminium \ Oxygen

(b) The equation for evolving chlorine gas during decomposition is:

2 \mathrm{NaCL}(l) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{Na}(a)+\mathrm{Cl}_{2}(g)

Sodium chloride\ sodium\ chlorine

(c) The equation of calcification is:

\mathrm{ZnCO}_{3}(s) \rightarrow \mathrm{ZnO}(a)+\mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)

Zinc carbonate $\quad$ Zinc Oxide $\quad$ Carbon dioxide

(d) The reduction reaction is shown as:

2 \mathrm{HgS}(s)+3 \mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{Hgo}(a)+2 \mathrm{So}_{2}(g)

Mercury Sulphide (II) $\quad$ Oxygen Mercury Oxide (II) $\quad$ Sulphur dioxide
