Explanation

To arrange the steps involved in the manufacture of glass in the correct sequence, we can follow these steps:

1. **Preparation of fine powder of raw materials (D)**: The first step in the glass manufacturing process is to prepare a fine powder from the raw materials, which typically include silica (sand), soda (sodium carbonate), and lime (calcium oxide).

2. **Addition of cullet (B)**: After preparing the fine powder, cullet (which is crushed recycled glass) is added to the mixture. Cullet helps in reducing the melting temperature and improves the quality of the glass.

3. **Heating of cullet at about 1600K to 1700K (E)**: The next step involves heating the mixture of raw materials and cullet in a furnace at high temperatures (around 1600K to 1700K). This process melts the materials and allows them to fuse together.
