<h3>1.Pyrometallurgy</h3>
  • This techniques involves the high temperature at which the Chemical reactions took place between the gases and solids.
  • Pyrometallurgy involves calcination, Roasting and smelting process.

 

<h3>  2.Electrometallurgy</h3>
  • This technique involves the metallurgy operations that took place in electrolytic cell.
  • Electro- winning and Electro-refining are some of the electrometallurgy process

<h3>   3. Hydrometallurgy</h3>
  • Reactions involves aqueous solutions to extract metal, use this technique.
  • Hydrometallurgy involves precipitation , distillation , adsorption and solid extraction operations.

Now,

Type of metallurgy are used in the production of Fe is Roasting and Smelting.

<h3>What is Roasting?</h3>
  • Ore is heated strongly with other substances, usually with Oxygen.
  • Process temperature is below the melting point.
  • Some of Impurities is removed as volatile substance.

In this reaction,

 FeO changes to Fe₂O₃ to prevent the loss of iron during smelting.

4FeO +O₂→ Fe₂O₃.

Now,

<h3>   What is Smelting?</h3>
  • The oxides of less electropositive metals like Pb, Zn, Fe, Sn, etc.
  • These are reduced by strongly heating with coal or coke.
  • Reduction of the oxide with Carbon at high temperature is known as Smelting.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that , metallurgy are used in the production of Fe is Roasting and Smelting.

10: Convert 77.0 L at 18.0 mmHg to its new volume at standard pressure.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is   V2 = 1.82 l

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = 77 l

Pressure 1 = 18 mmHg

Volume 2 = ?

Pressure 2 = 760 mmHg

Process

Use Boyle's law to solve this problem

                P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for V2

                 V2 = P1V1/P2

-Substitution

                 V2 = (18 x 77) / 760

-Simplification

                 V2 = 1386 / 760

-Result

                 V2 = 1.82 l
