    In which of the following isolations no reducing agent is required?

    A) Iron from haematite

    B) Aluminium from bauxite

    C)  Zinc from zinc blende

    D)  Mercury from cinnabar

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    In case of auto reduction no reducing agent is required. \[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}+3CO\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2Fe+3C{{O}_{2}}\] \[A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\xrightarrow[{}]{Elctrolysis}Al\,at\,cathode\] \[\underset{zinc\,blende}{\mathop{2ZnS+3{{O}_{2}}}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2ZnO+2S{{O}_{2}}\] \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  reducing \\  agent \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{ZnO+C}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}Zn+CO\] \[\underset{cinnabar}{\mathop{HgS+3{{O}_{2}}}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2HgO+2S{{O}_{2}}\] \[2HgO\xrightarrow[{}]{\Delta }2Hg+{{O}_{2}}\]
