Which of the following metals has the largest abundance in the earth's crust?
Aluminium
Calcium
Magnesium
Sodium
Thermite is a mixture of iron oxide and :
zinc powder
potassium metal
sodium shavings
aluminium powder
Which is the chief ore of copper?
Galena
Copper pyrites
Sphalerite
Siderite
Prepare CuSO4.5H2O starting from copper pyrites.
In aluminium extraction by the Bayer process, alumina is extracted from bauxite by sodium hydroxide at high temperatures and pressures
Solid impurities such as Fe2O3 and SiO2 are removed and then Al(OH)4- is reprecipitated
In the industrial world
carbon dioxide is added to precipitate the alumina
temperature and pressure are dropped and the super saturated solution seeded
both (A) and (B) are practised
the water is evaporated
Which of the following is not an ore of iron ?
Limonite
Caniterite
Magnetite
None of these
Extraction of gold (Au) involves the formation of complex ions X and Y.
Gold ore HO- + X Y + Au
X and Y respectively are
AuCN and Zn(CN)
Au(CN) and Zn(CN)
Au(CN)
Au(CN)
Roasted copper pyrite on smelting with sand produces
FeSiO3 as fusible slag and Cu2S as matte
CaSiO3 as infusible slag and Cu2O as matte
Ca3(PO4)2 as fusible slag and Cu2S as matte
Ca3(PO4)2 as infusible slag and Cu2S as matte
The composition of carnalite is
Na2Al2O3
Fe3O4
Na3AlF6
In the extraction of copper from sulphide ore the metal is formed by reduction of Cu2O with
FeS
CO
Cu2S
SO2
