Question
How does calcination differ from roasting?
Advertisements
Solution
| Roasting | Calcination |
| Ore is heated in excess of air. | Ore is heated in the absence or limited supply of air. |
| This is used for sulphide ores. | This is used for carbonate ores. |
| SO2 is produced along with metal oxide. | CO2 is produced along with metal oxide. |
| e.g. \[\ce{ 2ZnS + 3O2 ->[\Delta] 2ZnO + 2SO2}\] | e.g. \[\ce{ZnCO3 ->[\Delta] ZnO + CO2}\] |

Why molecularity is applicable only for elementary reactions and order is applicable for elementary as well as complex reactions?
Assertion: Order and molecularity are same.
Reason: Order is determined experimentally and molecularity is the sum of the stoichiometric coefficient of rate determining elementary step.
Assertion: The enthalpy of reaction remains constant in the presence of a catalyst.
Reason: A catalyst participating in the reaction, forms different activated complex and lowers down the activation energy but the difference in energy of reactant and product remains the same.
