(i) Zinc carbonate is calcinated.
(ii) Zinc sulphide is roasted or heated in air.
(iii) Zinc oxide is reduced to zinc.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) `ZnCO_(3)(s)overset("heat")rarrZnO(s) + CO_(2)(g)` (Calcination)
(ii) `2ZnS(s) + 3O_(2)(g) overset("heat")rarr2ZnO(s) + 2SO_(2)(g)` (Roasting)
(iii) `ZnO(s) + C(s) overset("heat")rarr Zn(s) + CO(g)` (Reduction)
