Question
Carbon and CO gas are used to reduce which of the following pairs of metal oxides forexpiration of metals ?
Options
A.FeO, SnO
B.SnO, ZnO
C.Na2O2
D.FeO, ZnO
Solution
ZnO + C → Zn + CO
FeO + C → Fe + CO
In the process of smelting the oxide ore is reduced by carbon and the metal may be obatained in the molten state or as vapours which are condensed. Metals like Zn, Fe, Pb or Sn are obtained by this process.
