उत्तर
| Roasting | Calcination | |
| (1) | The ore is heated in the excess of air. | The ore is heated in the absence of air. |
| (2) | Volatile impurities are removed as oxides (SO2, P2O5, As2O3) and the ore becomes porous and more reactive. | Moisture and organic impurities are removed and the ore becomes porous and more reactive. |
| (3) | Sulphide ores are roasted, so SO2 is given off. \[\ce{2ZnS + 3O2 ->[800^\circ-900^\circ C]2ZnO + 2SO2}\] |
Carbonate and hydrated ores are calcined and CO2 or water vapour are given off. \[\ce{ZnCO3 -> ZnO + CO2}\] |
