What metals can be purified from their ores by heating them with carbon?

Metals such as iron, zinc, lead, and copper can be purified from their ores by heating them with carbon. The carbon reduces the metal oxide to the elemental metal, which can then be separated and purified.


Separate the odd member from Iron Gold Carbon Silver?

Among iron, gold, carbon, and silver, the odd member is carbon, the only non-metal of the group. On the periodic table, the three metals are all in the central "transitional metals" area, but carbon is on the right side among the non-metals.


Is carbon monoxide a covalent or ionic bond?

Carbon monoxide - CO Covalent bonds are between non-metals only. Ionic bonds are between non-metals and metals. Carbon and oxygen are both non-metals; therefore, carbon monoxide is covalently bonded.


How are metals that are less reactive than carbon extracted from their oxides?

Metals less reactive than carbon, such as copper and silver, are extracted by reduction using carbon as a reducing agent. The metal oxide is heated with carbon (in the form of coke) to form carbon monoxide, which then reduces the metal oxide to the pure metal and carbon dioxide.


Are fluorine carbon and radon metals non metals metalloids n where do such elements lie in the periodic table?

Fluorine and carbon are nonmetals, while radon is a noble gas (nonmetal). These elements are found on the right side of the periodic table and are typically classified as nonmetals. Metals are generally found on the left side of the periodic table, while metalloids lie between metals and nonmetals.

Why sulphur and carbon tests are done?

These tests are performed to determine the carbon-sulfur content of some metals. Certain metals comply to a specific standard due to the levels of its carbon-sulfur content.


What metals can be purified from their ores by heating them with carbon?

Why nonmetals are softer?

Non metals are not always softer than metals. Diamonds (an allotrope of carbon) are amongst the hardest natural substances known. Carbon is nonmetalic.


Do metals burn to give carbon dioxide?

No. Metals do not contain carbon, so they cannot give off carbon dioxide.


Is carbon and oxygen both metals?

Nope. They are gasses.
