Question
Flux is used to remove :
Options
A.basic impurities
B.acidic impurities
C.all types of impurities
D.acid and basic both impurotoes
Solution
Flux is the material which is used in the metallurgy of metals to remove acidic andbasic impurities.
Acidic flux like silica is used to remove basic inpurities present in ore like CaO.
CaO + SiO2 → CaSiO3
Basic flux like limestone is used to remove silica like acidic inpurities .
SiO2 + CaCO2 + → CaSiO3 + CO2
Acidic flux like silica is used to remove basic inpurities present in ore like CaO.
CaO + SiO2 → CaSiO3
Basic flux like limestone is used to remove silica like acidic inpurities .
SiO2 + CaCO2 + → CaSiO3 + CO2
