The correct statement is:
  1. (A)zincite is a carbonate ore
  2. (B)aniline is a froth stabilizer✓ Correct
  3. (C)zone refining process is used for the refining of titanium
  4. (D)sodium cyanide cannot be used in the metallurgy of silver

Answer: (B)

Solution

Aniline is used in froth flotation as a froth stabiliser, keeping the mineral-laden foam intact, so that statement is sound. The rest do not hold up: zincite is the oxide , not a carbonate; titanium is purified by the van Arkel or Kroll route rather than zone refining, which is reserved for semiconductors like silicon and germanium; and sodium cyanide is in fact central to silver extraction, dissolving the metal as .
