Answers
the branch of science and technology concerned with the properties of metals and their production and purification is called metallurgy.
the process involved are:make refined alloys, and physical metallurgy, which involves the shaping, alloying, heat treatment, joining, corrosion protection and testing of metals.
Answer:
The process used for extracting metals in their pure form from their ores is referred to as metallurgy.It deals with the production of metals and manufacture of alloys.
Explanation:
The various steps of extracting a metal from its ore consists of the following steps:-
1. Crushing and grinding of the ore
2.Concentration or dressing of the ores in which they extract impurities like SiO2 present in an ore.
3.Conversion of concentrated ore to oxide by roasting or calcination.
4.Reduction of metallic oxides.
5.Refining or purification of metals.
And after all these steps the respective metal is extracted.
