According to the Wikipedia article on Zinc Oxide,
ZnO decomposes into zinc vapor and oxygen only at around 1975 °C, reflecting its considerable stability.
Heating with carbon converts the oxide into the metal, which is more volatile than the oxide, and also produces carbon monoxide.
ZnO + C ---> Zn + CO

What is the role of zinc oxide to he zinc oxide paste?
zinc oxide is antiseptic in zinc paste
Is zinc oxide an acid anhydride?
No. Zinc oxide is a amphoteric oxide.
What is the name for ZnO?
That would be zinc oxide.
What does zinc plus oxygen equals?
Zinc is a metal and Oxygen is a non-metal.
What is the reaction of zinc and oxygen?
Zinc Oxide. Whenever a metal reacts with oxygen, it bonds them both together, like magnesium+oxygen=magnesium oxide
How is oxygen removed from zinc oxide?
1. Heating zinc oxide at approx. 2 000 0C this compound is thermally decomposed in oxygen and zinc. 2. Zinc oxide can be reduced with carbon to obtain zinc and oxygen: ZnO + C = Zn + CO

What is ZnOS?
This is zinc oxide doped with sulfur.
What is the word equation for zinc and manganese dioxide?
Zinc + Manganese Dioxide → Zinc Oxide + Manganese Oxide
What metal when It decomposes it heated it give zinc oxide?
Zinc oxide can be obtained by heating zinc nitrate.
What is the reaction of zinc and oxygen?
Zinc Oxide. Whenever a metal reacts with oxygen, it bonds them both together, like magnesium+oxygen=magnesium oxide
What is the strongest percent of zinc oxide in ointments?
strongest zinc oxide ointment
What is the word equation for zinc oxide plus magnesium?
Zinc oxide reacts with metallic magnesium to produce magnesium oxide and metallic zinc.
What happens when you mix iron and Zinc Oxide and heat it?
a redox reaction takes place ( one gains oxygen and the other looses oxygen) the zinc (oxide) is displaced and the iron becomes iron oxide and zinc oxide becomes zinc
