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. \[\ce{ZnCO3 ->[\Delta] ZnO + CO2}\] |

The order of the reaction with respect to NO is ______. (Integer answer)
A flask contains a mixture of compounds A and B. Both compounds decompose by first-order kinetics. The half-lives for A and B are 300 s and 180 s, respectively. If the concentrations of A and B are equal initially, the time required for the concentration of A to be four times that of B (in s) is ______. (Use ln 2 = 0.693)
Assertion (A): Order of reaction is applicable to elementary as well as complex reactions.
