Answer:
ZnS is a sulphide ore, therefore roasting takes place
2ZnS + 3O2 ---> 2ZnO +2SO2
the two types of chemical reactions involved are
roasting
heating the sulphide ore in the presence of oxygen to liberate SO2 gas is called raosting
calcination
heating the carbonate ore in the absence of oxygen or in presence of less oxygen to liberate CO2 gas is called calcination
hope it helps you mate❤️❤️
