easy

Consider the following reactions

$2\,XS\, + \,3{O_2}\,\xrightarrow{\Delta }\,2XO\, + \,2S{O_2}$

$2\,XO\, + \,XS\,\xrightarrow{\Delta }\,3'X'\, + \,S{O_2}$

Then $'X'$ can not be

A

$Hg$

B

$Pb$

C

$Zn$

D

None

Solution

$Zn$ is extracted from its sulphide ore by roasting followed by carbon reduction $Hg,\,Pb$ and $Cu$ are extracted by self reduction from their sulphide ores.
