Q

Two sulphide ores can be separated by

A

Adding depressants like NaCN in case of ZnS and PbS

ZnS doesn’t come to the froth but PbS does

24
Q

Roasting

A

In the presence of air and for sulphide ores

25
Sulphide ores of cu are heated in
Reverberatory furnace
26
FeO + SiO2
FeSi03 ( slag)
27
Extraction of iron from its ore What is mixed with the ore
Limestone and coke
28
Extraction of iron from its ore Which provides the necessary heat for the reaction
Burning coke
29
Extraction of iron from its ore At 500 to 800 K what conversions occur
Fe2O3 to Fe3O4 Fe3O4 to Fe and CO2 Fe2O3 to FeO and co2 All reactions in the presence of CO
30
Limestone decomposes to CaO and reacts with?
Silicon impurities to from slag CaSiO3 (900-1500K)
31
Above what temp is the reaction spontaneous
1073K
32
4% C contains iron
Pig iron
33
Cast iron
3% C
34
Wrought iron or cast iron
Prepared form cast iron in reverberatory furnace having haematite lining
35
Cu from cuprous oxide extraction
Cu2S +3O2 - Cu2O Cu2O + C - cu + co FeO + SiO2 - Fesio3 Cu2S + Cu2O - Cu + So 2 ( cu obtained is called blister copper due to release of so2
36
Copper matte
Cu2S and FeS
37
Zinc from zinc oxide
Zinc oxide with coke to give zinc and co Rapid chilling
38
Hall Herodotus process
Al oxide is mixed with Na3 AlF6 or CaF2 Which lowers the melting point of the mixture Carbon carbide and graphite abide
39
Cu from low grade ores
By hydro metallurgy Leached using acid or bacteria
40
In gold and silver leaching with cn what is used as reducing agent
Zinc
41
Distillation
Low boiling metals Zinc me mercury
42
Liquation
Low melting Tin
43
Electrolytic refining
Impure metal as anode and pure metal as cathode Copper - electrolyte is cuso4 zinc
44
Zone refining
High purity - gallium, germanium, silicon, boron,indium
45
Vapor phase refining Monds recess Van arkel method
Volatile metal Easily decomposable Nickel Zirconium and titanium
46
Chromatographic method
Paper chromatography and column chromatography Column is used for minute particles and not very different chemical properties
47
Bronze composition is
Copper and tin
48
Brass composition
Copper and zinc
49
Coinage alloys
Copper and nickel
50
German silver
Cu - 25-30% Zn - 25-30% Ni - 40-50%
