 Given below are the steps for extraction of copper from its ore. Write the reaction involved. 
(i) Roasting of copper (I) sulphide.
(ii) Reduction of copper (I) oxide with copper (I) sulphide.
(iii) Electrolytic refining
(b) Draw a neat and well labelled diagram for electrolytic refining of copper.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`2Cu_(2)O + Cu_(2)S overset("Heat")rarr 6Cu + SO_(2)`
Detailed Answer :
Reduction of copper (I) oxide from copper (I) sulphide :
`underset("Copper oxide")(2Cu_(2)O(s)) + underset("Copper sulphide")(Cu_(2)S(s)) overset("Heat")rarr 6Cu(s) + SO_(2)(g)`
