forth flotation process is commonly employed from the concentration of sulphide ores (true/false) with reason
Answers
Explanation:
Froth flotation is a process for selectively separating hydrophobic materials from hydrophobic. In some cases, for example, sulphides ores of copper, zinc and lead concentration is brought by this method. In this method, the advantage is taken of the preferential wetting of the ore by an oil.The finely ground ore is taken in a tank containing water and 1% of pine oil or turpentine

A strong current of air is blown through the suspension, producing a heavy froth or foam on the surface.The metal sulphide is wetted by the oil but the gangues is not and the sulphide-oil mixture is carried to the surface by films of oil The froth is skimmed off, the gangue settles down on the bottom or remains underneath the froth. By this flotation method, it is possible to concentrate over 90% of a sulphite ore to 1/10 of its original bulk.
