Among the reactionsa-d, the reaction(s) that does/do not occur in the blast furnace during the extraction of iron is/are
a CaO+ SiO 2 CaSiO 3
b 3 Fe 2 O 3 +CO2 Fe 3 O 4 + CO 2
c FeO+ SiO 2 FeSiO 3
d FeOFe+ 1 2 O 2

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

CaO+SiO2CaSiO3

3Fe2O3+CO2Fe3O4+CO2

Used as flux.

Reduction is done by CO.

Hence these two reactions are possible butthe reactions given below are not possible

FeOFe+12O2

FeO+SiO2FeSiO3
