How does sodium cyanide act as depresant in preventing ZnS from forming the froth ?

Answer»

Solution :Sodium CYANIDE combines with ZnS to form a COMPLEX `Na_2 [Zn(CN)_4]` on the surface of ZnS and therefore, it PREVENTS it from FORMING the froth .
` ZnS + 4NaCN to underset("tetracyanidozincate (II)")underset("Sodium")(Na_2 [Zn(CN)_4]) + Na_2 S`
