Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

Zn

Explanation:

We are given that metal X is found in nature as its sulphide XS.

It is used in galvanization of iron articles .We know that galvanization of iron or steel zinc coating is used.

Therefore, metal X is zinc.

Roasting: it is process in which sulphide ores heated in presence of oxygen and convert into metal oxide and sulfur dioxide.

$2ZnS+3O_2\rightarrow 2ZnO+ 2SO_2$

Reduction of zinc oxide by carbon

$2ZnO+C\rightarrow 2 Zn+CO_2$
