The process of conversion of a concentrated ore into its oxide by heating in absence or in limited supply of air is called calcination. It is usually done for hydroxide and carbonate ores.
Thus,

M g C O_{3} Δ M g O + C O_{2}

is an example of calcination process.

Q. Which of the following reaction is an example of calcination process?

$2 A g + 2 H Cl + [O] ⟶ 2 A g Cl + H_{2} O$

$2 Z n + O_{2} ⟶ 2 Z n O$

$2 Z n S + 3 O_{2} ⟶ 2 Z n O + 2 S O_{2}$

$M g C O_{3} ⟶ M g O + C O_{2}$

The process of conversion of a concentrated ore into its oxide by heating in absence or in limited supply of air is called calcination. It is usually done for hydroxide and carbonate ores.
Thus, $M g C O_{3} Δ M g O + C O_{2}$ is an example of calcination process.

Q. Which of the following reaction is an example of calcination process?

2Ag+2HCl+[O]⟶2AgCl+H2​O

2Zn+O2​⟶2ZnO

2ZnS+3O2​⟶2ZnO+2SO2​

MgCO3​⟶MgO+CO2​

The process of conversion of a concentrated ore into its oxide by heating in absence or in limited supply of air is called calcination. It is usually done for hydroxide and carbonate ores. Thus, MgCO3​Δ​MgO+CO2​ is an example of calcination process.

$2 A g + 2 H Cl + [O] ⟶ 2 A g Cl + H_{2} O$

$2 Z n + O_{2} ⟶ 2 Z n O$

$2 Z n S + 3 O_{2} ⟶ 2 Z n O + 2 S O_{2}$

$M g C O_{3} ⟶ M g O + C O_{2}$

The process of conversion of a concentrated ore into its oxide by heating in absence or in limited supply of air is called calcination. It is usually done for hydroxide and carbonate ores.
Thus, $M g C O_{3} Δ M g O + C O_{2}$ is an example of calcination process.
