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.
The production of high-grade iron from hematite and magnetite using a blast furnace involves several reactions as described above. Write the balance step for each reaction. 1.

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).
