Chapter 20, Problem 43E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The balanced equations to describe the production of $\text{Bi}$ and $\text{Sb}$ are to be stated using Table $\text{19-13}$.

Concept introduction: Antimony $\left(\text{Sb}\right)$ and bismuth $\left(\text{Bi}\right)$ are group $5\text{A}$ elements. These elements easily lose electrons to form cations.

Heating a substance in presence of air at high temperature is known as roasting.

To determine: The balanced equations to describe the production of $\text{Bi}$ and $\text{Sb}$ using Table $\text{19-13}$.
