Blast furnaces extract pure iron from the iron(III) oxide in iron ore in a two step sequence. In the first step, carbon and oxygen react to form carbon monoxide: 2 C(s)+O,(g)→2 CO(g) In the second step, iron(III) oxide and carbon monoxide react to form iron and carbon dioxide: Fe,03(s)+3 CO(g)→2 Fe(s)+3 CO,(9) Write the net chemical equation for the production of iron from carbon, oxygen and iron(III) oxide. Be sure your equation is balanced.

Blast furnaces extract pure iron from the iron(III) oxide in iron ore in a two step sequence. In the first step, carbon and oxygen react to form carbon monoxide: 2 C(s)+0,(g)-2 CO(g) In the second step, iron(III) oxide and carbon monoxide react to form iron and carbon dioxide: Fe,03(s)+3 CO(g)→2 Fe(s)+3 Co,(g) Write the net chemical equation for the production of iron from carbon, oxygen and iron(III) oxide. Be sure your equation is balanced.
