Hii there!
Zn act as a reducing agent in the extraction of Ag
Redusing Agent : a substance that tends to bring about reduction by being oxidized and losing electrons.
Zinc is a chemical element with symbol Zn and atomic number 30. It is the first element in group 12 of the periodic table. In some respects zinc is chemically similar to magnesium: both elements exhibit only one normal oxidation state (+2), and the Zn2+ and Mg2+ ions are of similar size. Zinc is the 24th most abundant element in Earth's crust and has five stable isotopes.
