उत्तर
- The process of heating carbonate ores in limited air to convert it into respective oxide is called calcination.
- For example, zinc carbonate is heated strongly in a limited supply of air to convert it to zinc oxide.
\[\ce{\underset{\text{Zinc carbonate}}{ZnCO_{3(s)}} ->[Heat] \underset{\text{Zinc oxide}}{ZnO_{(s)}} + \underset{\text{Carbon dioxide}}{CO_2\uparrow}}\]
