Solution
| Roasting | Calcination | |
| 1. | This method is generally used for sulphide ores | This method is generally used for carbonate ores. |
| 2. | In this method, ores are heated in excess of air. | In this method, ores are heated in a limited supply of air. |
| 3. | In roasting, generally sulphur dioxide gas is evolved. | In calcination, generally carbon dioxide gas is evolved. |
| 4. | In this method, sulphide ores are oxidized to form metal oxides. E.g. \[\ce{2ZnS + 3O2 -> 2ZnO + 2SO2 \uparrow}\] |
In this method, carbonate ores decompose to form metal oxide. E.g. \[\ce{ZnCO3 -> ZnO + CO2 \uparrow}\] |
