NEETChemistryGeneral Principles and Processes of Isolation of Metals
Explain the following : Vapour phase refining method is used for the purification of Ti.
Options
- ATi has a low boiling point.
- BTi is easily oxidized in the presence of air.
- CTi reacts with iodine to form volatile TiI 4 which decomposes at high temperature to give extra pure titanium.
- DTi forms non-volatile compounds with impurities.
Correct answer
C. Ti reacts with iodine to form volatile TiI 4 which decomposes at high temperature to give extra pure titanium.
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) Ti reacts with iodine to form volatile TiI 4 which decomposes at high temperature to give extra pure titanium.
