To solve the question regarding the commonly employed reducing agents for the reduction of specific metal oxides and halides, we will analyze each part step-by-step: ### Step 1: Reduction of ZnO to Zn - **Reaction**: Zinc oxide (ZnO) is reduced to zinc (Zn) using carbon as the reducing agent. - **Common Reducing Agent**: Coke (which is primarily carbon) is typically used in this reduction process. - **Reaction Equation**: \[ \text{ZnO} + \text{C} \rightarrow \text{Zn} + \text{CO} ...
