Question

define the process of extraction of an iron ore?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Iron is extracted from iron ore in a huge container called a blast furnace. Iron ores such as haematite contain iron(III) oxide, Fe 2O 3. The oxygen must be removed from the iron(III) oxide in order to leave the iron behind. Reactions in which oxygen is removed are called reduction reactions.

Answer 2

Answer: The process of extraction of an iron ore is

Explanation:

1.It is extracted in the huge container called blast furnace .

2.The oxygen is removed from iron oxide leaving iron behind.

3.This all reaction is called as reduction reaction as oxygen gets removed.

         2Fe2O3(s) + 3C(s) → 4Fe(l) + 3CO2(g)

this reaction says the extraction of iron oxide.

4.The iron ore which used for the process is haematite.
