Answer:
carbon reduction we can extract a base metal from its ore via reduction of fused metal oxide using carbon whereas, in thermite process, we use aluminium powder instead of carbon.
The reactions that will take place will generate Zinc salts that will
taint the food. Excessive levels of these salts can cause sickness, so
it is very important to ensure food hygiene standards are met by keeping
acidic foods away from damaging materials like zinc that will erode and
get into the food.
What happens in the artificial transmutation is that the nucleous is bombarded with high energy particles which we can describe as kinetic energy and the idea for them is to induce what we call transmutation. Also what happens is that the high energy particles are accelerated. One of the examples is when nitrogen is transformed into hydrogen by combining its nucleous with an alpha particle
