Iron
Iron is a chemical element; it has symbol Fe and atomic number 26. It is a metal that belongs to the first transition series and group 8 of the periodic table. It is, by mass, the most common element on Earth, forming much of Earth's outer and inner core. It is the fourth most common element in the Earth's crust, being mainly deposited by meteorites …
23.2: Principles of Extractive Metallurgy
Metal ores are generally oxides, sulfides, silicates (Table 23.2.1 23.2. 1) or "native" metals (such as native copper) that are not commonly concentrated in the Earth's crust, or "noble" metals (not …
Chemistry of Iron
The overall equation for the reaction is: S2O2−8 + 2I− → 2SO2−4 +I2 (2) (2) S 2 O 8 2 − + 2 I − → 2 S O 4 2 − + I 2. For the sake of argument, we'll take the catalyst …
9.3.2 Extraction of Iron from Hematite
Extraction of Iron from Hematite. Iron is extracted in a large container called a blast furnace from its ore, hematite. Modern blast furnaces produce approximately 10,000 tonnes of iron per day. The process is demonstrated and explained below: Diagram showing the carbon extraction of iron. The raw materials: iron ore (hematite), coke (an impure ...
