which of the following reaction explains a smelting process?

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

 ZnCO3→ZnO+CO2, It shows the calcination process, Heating of hydrated and carbonated ore in the absence of the air then metal oxide will form.

Fe2O3+3C→2Fe+3CO, This is the smelting process. In this process reduction of metal oxide in the presence of the suitable reducing agent like C and CO to get the metal oxide. 

 2PbS+3O2→2PbO+2SO2, This is the roasting process. In this process, heating of the sulphide ores in the presence of the air to obtain the metal oxide.

 Al2O3·2H2O→Al2O3+2H2O, This is the calcination process.
