General Principles and processes of Isolation of Elements
hard
Which of the following species is (are) desirable substance(s) in extraction of copper but not in extraction of iron ?
A
$CaSiO_3$
B
$FeSiO_3$
C
$SiO_2$
D
coke

Haematite ore of iron contain $Si$ as impurity where it reacts with $O _2$ to produce $SiO _2$ which is further used in formation of slag.
But in extraction of copper $SiO _2$ is needed to form slag.
