Leaching of an ore is done by

Reducing agent used for reduction of copper oxide in blast furnace is:-

Statement - 1 : Levigation is used for the separation of oxide ores from impurities. And Statement - 2 : Impurities are removed by washing in a current of water.

In blast furnace, iron oxide is reduced by

A sulphide ore is first converted into its oxide before reduction. This is done because :

Statement -1 : H_(3)PO_(2) is a weak monobasic acid and is also strong reducing in nature. Statement -2 :

Statement - 1 : Sulphide ores are concentrated by froth floatation process. And Statement - 2 : Pine oil acts as a frothing agent in froth floatating process.

Statement - 1 : In smelting, roasted ore is heated with powdered coke in presence of a flux. And Statement - 2 : Oxides are reduced to metals by C or CO. Impurities are removed as slag.

Extraction of copper is done using copper pyrites. After roasting, the ore is mixed with silica and coke and then smelted in a blast furnace. The matte obtained from the blast furnace is charged into a silica-lined converter. Some silica is also added, and a hot air blast is blown into the mixture to obtain blister copper, which is purified by electrorefining. The chemical formula of copper pyrites is.
