hematite with 66% iron in it. In olden days haematite is directly fed into the blast furnace
a high powered coke and haematite reaction
Iron is an element, not a compound; a wide variety of compounds can be formed from Iron (Fe)
The percentage of iron in iron(III) chloride is 65,57 %.
YES!!! In the Blast Furnace. CO is a powerful reducing agent , so it will reduce haematite to iron. In the Blast furnace, CO2 is formed from the thermal decomposition of limestone(flux). However because there is an excess of carbon (C) in the form of coke, the coke and CO2 combine to form CO (Carbon Monoxide). The carbon monoxide then reduces the haematite to iron, releasing CO2 in the process. The C , CO and CO2 then react in a cyclic manner inside the furnace. 3CO + F2O3 = 2Fe+ 3CO2
Iron is extracted from haematite.
Hematite is a mineral made of iron and oxygen. It can be gray, red, or brown.
Haematite is a form of iron(III) oxide, Fe2O3, which is found in the Earth's crust.

Iron
The main raw material for iron-making is iron ore.There are two iron ore minerals:haematite and magnetite.Actually haematite is an ore where iron is extracted.One can say that haematite is a source if iron.
haematite
The principal ore for iron is haematite.
Iron ore is the IMPURE mineral rock that contains Haematite (Iron (III) Oxide).
Iron is bonded to six oxygen ligands.
the mineral haematite is an important source of iron.
Haematite is a form of iron(III) oxide, Fe2O3, which is found in the Earth's crust.
