Formation of metallic copper from sulphi...

Formation of metallic copper from sulphide ore in te normal thermometallurgical process essentially involves which of the following reactions

`Cu_2S+ 3//2O_2 to Cu_2O + SO_2 , CuO + C to Cu + CO`

`Cu_2S + 3//2O_2 to Cu_2O + SO_2 , 2Cu_2O + Cu_2S to 6Cu + SO_2`

`Cu_2S + 2O_2 to CuSO_4 , CuSO_4 + Cu_2S to 3Cu + 2SO_2`

`Cu_2S + 3//2O_2 to Cu_2O + SO_2 , Cu_2O + CO to 2Cu + CO_2`

Formation of metallic copper from the sulphide ore in the normal thermo-metallurgical process essentially involves which one of the following reaction ?

`{:(CuS + (3)/(2)O_(2) rarr CuO + SO_(2),),(CuO + C rarr Cu + CO):}`

`{:(CuS + (3)/(2)O_(2) rarr CuO + SO_(2),),(2CuO + CuS rarr 3Cu + SO_(2)):}`

`{:(CuS + 2O_(2) rarr CuSO_(4),),(CuSO_(4) + CuS rarr CuSO_(4)):}`

`{:(CuS + (3)/(2)O_(2) rarr CuO + SO_(2),),(CuO + CO rarr Cu + CO_(2)):}`

`Cu_(2)S+(3)/(2)O_(2) to Cu_(2)O+SO_(2), " " Cu_(2)O+C to 2Cu+CO`

`Cu_(2)S+(3)/(2)O_(2)to Cu_(2)O+SO_(2), " " 2Cu_(2)O+Cu_(2)S to 6Cu+SO_(2)`

`Cu_(2)S+2O_(2) to CuSO_(4), " " CuSO_(4)+Cu_(2)S to 3Cu+2SO_(2)`

`Cu_(2)S+(3)/(2)O_(2)to Cu_(2)O+SO_(2), " " Cu_(2)O+CO to 2Cu+CO_(2)`
