(a)  (i) Zinc blende is mainly Zinc sulphide and in industry it is converted to ZnO by flames to burn off the sulphur as SO2 which is then used to make sulphuric acid.

(ii)   Reduction of ZnO to Zn:-

2ZnO + C = CO2 + 2Zn

(b) This is called sacrificial anodic protection.  The zinc ( which is more reactive than iron) when in contact with the oxygen in the air is oxidised and in the process loses its electrons. These travel  through the electrolyte to the iron. The electrons then reduce any iron oxide to iron: fe2+ + 2e  ---> Fe.

It will probably zip far from you and join itself to an adjacent molecule or atom. it gets to be distinctly radioactive when its core contains an excessive number of or an excessively couple of neutrons. Attempt to keep an indistinguishable number of neutrons and protons from you construct your iota. In the event that the awkwardness is excessively extraordinary, radioactive rot will happen.
