Answer: The fourth material that is added to the blast furnace is HOT AIR which provides OXYGEN for used for combustion of carbon (Coke).
Explanation:
Iron is the second most abundant metal found in the earth's crust after aluminium. It is not found in the free metallic state but are extracted from rocks which are rich in iron that contains other materials. These are known are iron ores and the most common iron ores are haematite ( Fe2O3).
Iron can be extracted from its ore with the used of blast furnace. The materials used for extraction of iron includes:
--> Coke
--> haematite( iron ore)
--> limestone and
--> Hot air.
The iron ore is first roasted in air so that iron(III)oxide is produced. The iron(III)oxide is then mixed with coke and limestone and heated to a very high temperature. Hot air is introduced into it from the bottom of the furnace. The coke is oxidizes the the oxygen in the hot air blast to liberate carbondioxide.
<span>The choices for this question can be found elsewhere and as follows:
Silver is a transition metal with electrons in the d shell.
Silver atoms have 47 protons in their nuclei.
Silver atoms commonly form ions with a +1 charge.
I think the correct answer is the last option. The least reliable information would be that s</span>ilver atoms commonly form ions with a +1 charge.
Always use least amount of sig figs possible. So this 9.7 would be (answer): 2 sig figs
Answer: K and Mg
Explanation:
The first one refers to the atomic radius and increases going down and to the left on the periodic table. K is in between Rb and Na.
