Answer:

reduction

The chemical process used for obtaining a metal from its oxide is reduction. In this process, metal oxides are reduced by using suitable reducing agents such as carbon or by highly reactive metals to displace the metals from their oxides.

Reduction method is used to obtain metal from its oxide. Metallic oxide is reduced to metal during the extraction of metals. Metallurgy is the method of extracting metals from their ores. Electrolysis is a method for isolating highly reactive metals, such as aluminium, using an electric current. Less reactive metals like iron can be extracted with reduction, where oxygen is removed from the ore through a reaction with carbon or carbon dioxide.

Example:-

» Zinc oxide is reduced to metallic zinc by Heating with carbon
