An ore contains PbS, ZnS, and FeS2, During separation of the three by froth flotation, the role of `CuSO_(4)`

A

To make Zns wettable by froth

B

To depress the flotation of `FeS_(2)`

C

To react with excess NaCN

D

To stabilize ZnS in froth

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
An ore contains `Pbs, Zns and FeS_(2)`. During the separation of three by froth floatation the role of `CuSO_(4)` is to make ZnS wettable by froth.
