Which one of the following is not a calcination reaction?

  1. CaCO3 + 2HCl CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
  2. ZnCO3 ZnO + CO2
  3. Fe2O3 . xH2O Fe2O3 + xH2O
  4. CaCO3 . MgCO3 CaO + MgO + 2CO2

Answer

(1) CaCO3 + 2HCl CaCl2 + H2O + CO2

Solution

Calcination is heating of an ore (carbonate or hydrated oxide) alone, in a limited supply of air, so that volatile matter (CO2, H2O) is removed.

Options (2), (3) and (4) are thermal decompositions of a carbonate or hydrated oxide calcination.

In option (1), CaCO3 reacts with another reagent, HCl an acid–base reaction, not calcination.
