Answer:

The name of the compound present in the cinnabar ore is mercury (II) sulphide. Its chemical formula is HgS. Mercury is a less reactive metal and it can be extracted from its sulphide ore cinnabar by heating it in air alone. ... Mercury (II) oxide, so formed, is heated to around 300°C and it gets reduced to mercury metal.
