Out of C and CO, which is a better reducing agent at lower temperature range in the blast furnace to extract iron from the oxide ore?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

CO is a better reducing agent at the lower temperature range in the blast furnace.
`{:(3Fe_(2)O_(3)+CO to 2Fe_(3)O_(4)+CO_(2)),(Fe_(3)O_(4)+4CO to 3Fe+4CO_(2)),(Fe_(2)O_(3)+CO to 2FeO+CO_(2)):}`.
