Q.4. Zinc metal can be obtained from zinc oxide, ZnO, by reaction at high temperature
with carbon monoxide, CO.
ZnO(s) + CO(g)
Zn(s) + CO2(g)
The carbon monoxide is obtained from carbon.
2C(s) + 02(g) –→ 2C0(g)
What is the maximum amount of zinc that can be obtained from 75.0 g of zinc oxide
and 50.0 g of carbon? (Zn:65.4, C:12, H:1, O:16 g/mol)
