(iii)Froth Floatation process
Describe the principle behind each of the following processes:
(i)Vapour phase refining of a metal.

(i) What is the principle behind the zone refining of metals?
(ii) What is the role of silica in the extraction of copper?
(iii) How is 'cast iron' different from 'pig iron'?
Outline the principles of refining of metals by the following methods:
(i) Zone refining
(ii) Vapour phase refining
How is copper extracted from a low-grade ore of it?
Copper can be obtained from low grade from low through the process of leaching using acid or bacteria (leaching processes in which ore is treated with a suitable reagent which dissolves ore but not the impurities).
