Chapter 22, Problem 18PS
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The function of CaO in the metallurgy of iron where it reacts with impurities present in the iron ores has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Pyrometallurgy is a method used for extracting and purifying metals using high temperature. It is used in the production of iron. Carbon and carbon monoxide are commonly used reducing agents in pyrometallurgy of iron to get impure iron metal. Iron ores contain impurities like silicon dioxide. Lime is added to remove theses impurities.
