Is an ore a compound or mixture?
Ores such as iron oxide is a compound and not a mixture due to two reasons: i. iron atoms being chemically bonded (not physically mixed) to oxygen atoms forming iron oxide; ii. the separation of iron from its oxide requires a chemical reaction.
What non-silicate group contains iron ores?
Iron ore minerals would be included in the oxide mineral grouping.
The magnetic iron oxide mineral is called?
magnetite magnetite magnetite magnetite magnetite magnetite magnetite magnetite
What is iron oxide made up of?
Iron oxide is made up of iron and oxygen combined together. There are three types of iron oxide viz., Iron(II) oxide (FeO) occasionally referred to as 'greenstone' , because it is slightly green in colour. Iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3) commerically referred to as iron ore. It is the most common and stable of the oxides of iron. Iron(IV)Oxide (Fe3O4) known as magnetite. Because a rod or bar of it will orientate towards the north pole. Historically it was named 'lodestone'.
What is another name for magnetite?
The mineral magnetite is also known as lodestone, a name also used for pieces of the ore that are natural magnets. Magnetite consists of iron (II,III) oxide with the formula Fe3O4.
What is the word equation for the extraction of iron from the ore iron oxide?
oxidition
How is a metal made?
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.
Hematite is a variety of iron ore. What is the other element joined with iron in the ore?
It is oxygen that is chemically combined with the iron to form iron(III) oxide. That iron oxide, which is Fe2O3, is what is in hematite, and that's what we want to recover and process. A link can be found below.
Which is the richest iron ore?
Magnetite - It is an Oxide of Iron and yields 72 percent metal.
What are the main metal compounds in iron ore aluminum ore and copper ore?
Iron ore, which is known as (haematite) it is made up of Iron(III) oxide, Fe2O3 and sand, it is mainly made up of iron(III) oxide, Fe2O3.An Aluminum ore, one of which is know as (Bauxite) is mad up of gibbsite Al(OH)3, boehmite y-AlOH(OH), and diaspore α-AlO(OH), it is mainly made up of gibbsite Al(OH)3. The gibbsite is normally converted into aluminum oxide, Al2O3, the aluminum oxide is obtained by heating the gibbsite.A Copper ore, one of which is known as (Cuprite) is made up of mainly copper(I) oxide Cu2O.I hope this answered your question. and here are quick built points with just the metal ore and their main metal compounds.The ore - the main metal compoundIron ore - iron(III) oxide, Fe2O3Aluminum ore - aluminum oxide, Al2O3Copper ore - copper(I) oxide Cu2Osigned Josef, hope it helped
Is compound solid?
A solid may be an element (iron), a compound (iron oxide), a mixture (iron ore).
What is ironore?
Iron ore is the IMPURE mineral rock that contains Haematite (Iron (III) Oxide).
Iron ore is made of what mineral?
Iron ore is typically an oxide of iron. Haematite is very commonly mined this is a mineral form of Fe2O3. Magnetite has been mined , this is a form of Fe3O4.
What is the word obtained after unscrambling the word taeteihm?
The anagram is hematite, an iron oxide ore.
What mineral is mines for its iron content?
Hematite is a mineral that is mined for its iron content. It is the most important ore of iron and is a common iron oxide mineral.
Is Bauxite a iron ore?
No, Bauxite is not a type of iron ore. it is an ore of aluminum.
When iron ore is heated in a blast furnace the products are pure iron and carbon dioxide?
Yes because it becomes iron oxide this is true.
