The correct option(s) related to the extraction of iron from its ore in the blast furnace operating in the temperature range is(are)
Options
- ALimestone is used to remove silicate impurity.
- BPig iron obtained from blast furnace contains about carbon.
- CCoke converts to .
- DExhaust gases consist of and .
Correct answer
A. Limestone is used to remove silicate impurity.
Step-by-step solution
(A) Limestone is added to remove silica as impurity.
(B) Pig iron obtained from blast furnace contains carbon and many other impurities (eg. ) in small amount.
In fusion zone molten iron becomes heavy by absorbing elemental impurities and produces Pig iron. (in the temperature range 900 – 1500 K)
(C) Coke converts .
(D) Exhaust gases consist of .
Exhaust gases does not contain NO2
Hence, (A,B,C) are correct.
