A 1.1324 g sample of magnetite ore was dissolved in concentrated HCl to give a solution that contained a mixture of Fe2+ and Fe3+. Nitric acid was added and the solution was boiled for a few minutes, which converted all of the iron to Fe3+. The Fe3+ was then precipitated as Fe2O3*xH2O by addition of NH3. After filtration and washing, the residue was ignited at a high temp to give 0.5394 g of pure Fe2O3. What is the percent Fe and the percent Fe3O4 in the sample?
blast furnace makes pig iron containing 3.6% C, 1.4% Si and 95% Fe. The ore used contains 80% FE2O3, 12% SiO2 and 8% Al2O3. The coke analysis shows the presence of 10% SiO2 and 90% C. The flux used is pure CaCO3. The exit gases contain 28% CO and 14% CO2. The coke ratio is 1000 kg/t pig iron. Flux is 400 kg/t pig iron. Calculate per tonne of pig iron: (a) the weight of the slag made, (b) the weight of the ore used, (c) the composition of slag the air required at NTP.
Impure nickel, refined by smelting sulfide ores in a blast furnace, can be convertedinto metal from 99.90% to 99.99% purity by the Mond process. The primaryreaction involved in the Mond process is:Ni(s) + 4CO(g) ⇌ Ni(CO)4(g)In the second step of the Mond process, the gaseous Ni(CO)4 is isolated andheated to 227°C. The purpose of this step is to deposit as much nickel as possibleas pure solid (the reverse of the preceding reaction). Calculate the equilibriumconstant for the preceding reaction at 227°C.
A sample of slag (ore tailings) from a blast furnace was analyzed to determine the SiO2 content. A sample of 0.5003 g of slag was decomposed with HCl, leaving a solid residue with a mass of 0.1414 g. The residue was subsequently treated with HF and H2SO4 and heated to convert all the SiO2 present in the sample to SiF4, which is volatile and was evaporated leaving a residue with a mass of 0.0183 g. Determine the percentage by mass (% m/m) of SiO2 in the sample.

World production of chromite (FeCr₂O₄), the main ore ofchromium, was 1.5107metric tons in 2003. To isolate chro-mium, a mixture of chromite and sodium carbonate is heated inair to form sodium chromate, iron(III) oxide, and carbon diox-ide. The sodium chromate is dissolved in water, and this solutionis acidified with sulfuric acid to produce the less soluble sodiumdichromate. The sodium dichromate is filtered out and reduced with carbon to produce chromium(III) oxide, sodium carbonate,and carbon monoxide. The chromium(III) oxide is then reduced to chromium with aluminum metal. (a) Write balanced equations for each step. (b) What mass of chromium (in kg) could be pre-pared from the 2003 world production of chromite?
One can view the blast furnace from a simple viewpoint as a process in which the principal reaction is: Fe2O3 + C → Fe + CO But some other undesirable side reactions occur, mainly Fe2O3 +C → FeO+CO After mixing 600 lb of carbon (coke) with 1.00 ton of pure iron oxide, Fe2O3, the process produces 1200 lb of pure iron, 183 lb of FeO and 85 lb of Fe2O3. Calculate the pounds of carbon used up and the pounds of CO produced per ton of Fe2O3 charged and the selectivity in this process (of Fe with respect to FeO).
