A salt 'X' of a metal which is used in the galvanizing process on heating produces an oxide of that metal 'Y' and a gas 'Z' . Z is used in the preparation of soda water, and 'Y' is used as a base of white paint. Identify X, Y, Z.

A salt 'X' of a metal which is used in the galvanizing process on heat

1.	A salt 'X' of a metal which is used in the galvanizing process on heating produces an oxide of that metal 'Y' and a gas 'Z' . Z is used in the preparation of soda water, and 'Y' is used as a base of white paint. Identify X, Y, Z.
Answer» SOLUTION :Since 'Z' is used in MAKING soda water, it is carbon DIOXIDE. Themetalcarbonate is zinc carbonate because zinc carbonate onheating produces zinc oxide and carbon dioxide. Zinc oxide is used as a PAINT. So 'X' is zinc carbonate, 'Y' is zinc oxide and 'Z' is carbon dioxide.
