An ore mixture that can be separated by magnetic separation contains a non-magnetic amphoteric oxide. Select the correct option :-

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

The ore mixture contains a non-magnetic amphoteric oxide, which is likely SnO₂ (cassiterite). Magnetic separation removes magnetic impurities. SnO₂ is then roasted to remove volatile impurities, leached to concentrate, and finally carbon-reduced (smelting) to extract Sn.
