Iron ore is mixed with coke (almost pure carbon from coal) and roasted at high temperatures. The carbon reacts with the oxygen to produce carbon dioxide leaving the elemental iron.

∙ 13y agoOxygen is removed from iron ore through a process called smelting. This involves heating the iron ore with a reducing agent such as carbon, which reacts with the oxygen in the ore to form carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide, leaving behind the pure iron metal.
False. Iron is separated from oxygen during the process of smelting iron ore in a blast furnace, where the ore is heated to high temperatures in the presence of carbon (coke) to remove the oxygen and extract the iron. Cooling alone does not separate iron from oxygen in iron ore.
Iron is usually separated from its ores through a process called smelting, which involves heating the ore with a reducing agent such as coke. This process removes the oxygen from the ore, leaving behind the pure iron metal. The impurities in the ore combine with the flux to form a slag that is then removed.
Oxygen is removed from steel through processes like vacuum degassing, inert gas purging, and adding deoxidizing agents such as aluminum or silicon to react with the oxygen and form oxides that can be removed. These methods help reduce the oxygen content in the steel, improving its quality and properties.
Smelting iron ore involves heating the ore with a reducing agent (such as coke) in a blast furnace to remove the oxygen and convert the iron into a more pure form. The intense heat causes the chemical reaction that separates the iron from other elements in the ore, resulting in molten iron. The impurities, known as slag, are also removed during the process.
Depending on the reactivity of metal combined in the ore . It can be done by thermal reduction , or by electrolysis. NB Iron ore is reduced by thermally, in the blast furnace. Bauxite ( Aluminium oxide) is reduced by electrolysis, in an electrolysis plant.
Metals are extracted from their ore through chemical reaction. Iron ore is an oxide of iron. The oxygen is removed from the ore by heating carbon with the ore to create molten iron and Carbon Dioxide.
Iron ore was mixed with limestone and charcoal. The charcoal would be ignited, and air forced through the mix. The charcoal would removed the oxygen from the iron ore, leaving iron.

Iron ore is removed with dynamite and lots of heavy equipment. It starts as iron ore and is mixed with coke (carbon). This is a displacement reaction which means that the iron is separated from the ore and you have iron on its own.

Iron ores consists mostly of oxygen and iron atoms bonded together into molecules. To convert these oxides or iron to metallic iron, they must be smelted or sent through a direct reduction process to remove the oxygen. Oxygen-iron bonds are strong, and to remove the iron from the oxygen, a stronger elemental bond must be presented to attach to the oxygen. Carbon is used because the strength of a carbon-oxygen bond is greater than that of the iron-oxygen bond, and the process is done at high temperatures. The iron ore must be powdered and mixed with coke, which is essentially carbon, and the whole must be burnt in the smelting process.It is reduced with carbon by smelting. It is placed in a furnace with carbon coke and lime is added to reduce impurities
Hematite is a mineral made of iron and oxygen. It can be gray, red, or brown.
Iron is extracted from iron ore through a process called smelting, using high temperatures in a blast furnace. The iron ore is first crushed and then heated with carbon (coke) in the furnace, which reduces the iron oxide to form molten iron. The impurities are removed as slag, leaving behind the molten iron which is then poured into molds to solidify into shapes.
Iron ores most often contain iron combined with oxygen. The carbon comes from a material called coke, which is made from coal. When heated, the carbon reacts with oxygen in the ore, leaving the purified iron metal behind.
