In the extraction of iron. the reaction which occurs at 900- 1500 K in blast furnace is
Options
- AFe ₂ O ₃+3 C 2 Fe +3 CO
- BFeO + CO Fe + CO ₂
- C3 Fe ₂ O ₃+ CO 2 Fe ₃ O ₄+ CO ₂
- DFe ₃ O ₄+4 CO 3 Fe +4 CO ₂
Correct answer
B. FeO + CO Fe + CO ₂
Step-by-step solution
In the blast furnace reduction of iron oxides take place at different temperature ranges. aligned & At 900-500 ~K & FeO + CO Fe + CO ₂ & C + CO ₂ 2 CO & CaO + SiO ₂ CaSiO ₃ (slag) aligned
