Detailed Solution

Leaching of Ag2S is carried out by heating it with a dilute solution of NaCN in the presence of O2. Heating Ag2S in the presence of a diluted NaCN solution allows for the leaching of Ag2S. This creates a fluid complex [Ag(CN)2]-Ag2S+4NaCN4Na++2[Ag(CN)2](2-)+S(2-)

Here, oxygen converts sulfide ions to sulfate ions.

So, it is possible to segregate soluble and insoluble materials.

Silver is produced in a displacement reaction when the cyanide molecule is treated with zinc. 2NaAg(CN)2+ZnZn(CN)42+2Ag 

Hence Correct option is D.
