Want this question answered?
The carbon combines with the oxygen in the ore, separating it from the iron.Excess carbon alloys with the extracted iron, hardening it.
The iron stand supports the iron ring when heating substances or mixtures in a flask or beaker.
Metals are extracted from ores. An ore is a rock that contains enough of a mineral (metal compound) for the metal to be extracted from it. Most metals are extracted from an ore by reduction with carbon or by electrolysis.
There are mainly three types of substances.These are Paramagnetic, Diamagnetic and Ferromagnetic.Paramagnetic substances are weakly attracted by external magnetic field.Diamagnetic substances are weakly repelled external magnetic field.Ferromagnetic substances are strongly attracted by external magnetic field.So, a magnet only sticks to ferromagnetic metals like iron, cobalt and nickel.Other metals either weakly attract magnets or repel them.
It depends on wwhat it is being mixed with and how they are bbeing used.
Carbon
blast furnace
Hygroscopic substances can absorb water easily; they are used for the drying other substances or to extract water from boxes, containers, packagings, etc.
Iron (Fe)
Thermite, the iron melts.
Fuel Processor(reformer)
A blast furnace is used to extract iron from its ore.
i dont thinnk they used anything
The principal mineral used to extract iron is hematite. It is extracted by a redox reaction series. The 'industrial vessel' used to melt iron is called the blast furnace.
We extract iron form it's ore so that we can use it for a lot more things. For Example, this process makes wrought iron which can be used for ornamental work in gates. A lot of the iron from the blast furnace can be made into steel. Useful website: gcsescience.com
