Answer 2

Answer:

Zinc metal is extracted from zinc oxide by removing the oxygen atoms from zinc this is one of the method to get metals from metal oxide. Carbon can remove the oxygen atoms from metals this method is called reduction by “roasting” metal oxide with coke and metal is left and carbon dioxide is produced.

2ZnO + C → 2Zn + CO2

Hope this helps:)
