How are minerals extracted from their ores?

metals are extracted from their ores according to their reactivity series.firstly, metals that are more reactive that carbon are extracted by electrolysis whic is breaking the compounds down using electricity.secondly, metals that are less reactive than carbon are extracted by reduction in which carbon is added to the metal ore, carbon react with oxygen and the metal remain by itself pure.example: Zinc oxide + Carbon ----> Zinc + Carbon dioxideGold and Platinum are found in nature by themselves.


What Methods Can Be used To Extract Metals From Ores?

There are three basic ways of treating metallic ores in order to extract their metal content. Pyrometallurgy is the treatment of metals and their ores by heat. Pyrometallurgy includes Roasting, which is the heating of ores in air or heating it with a reducing agent such as carbon (coke) or carbon monoxide. Pyrometallurgy is the oldest extractive process. In early day Nevada, carbon was obtained from pinyon pines, juniper trees or sagebrush. The wood was collected and heated in ovens which resembled beehives and these ovens became the "Beehive Ovens" found today near numerous old mining camps. The second basic way of treating metallic ore is electrometallurgy. In this method the metals are processed using electricity such as electroplating and electrorefining. Electric arc furnaces are used to make steel. Electrometallurgy is used when very high purity metal is needed. The third basic way of treating metallic ore is hydrometallurgy. This is a wet process as the name implies, where reactants are used in a water solution. This method has not been used on an industrial scale due to the high costs involved. However, as the concentration of desired metal becomes less in the ores mined, the wet processing of the more valuable metal ores becomes more feasible


How is the process of extraction of metals from ores called?

There are several ways to do this. The most common is smelting, a favorite of mine is bioleaching.


Are there any common ways energy is changed from one form to another yet conserved?

Yes. Motors and generators exchange mechanical/electrical energy with heat as the conservation energy component. Heat and friction are the common ways energy is conserved as it is changed from one form of energy to another, e.g chemical to electrical by battery and heat.


How are wolves conserved?

Wolves are conserved in several different ways. One way is through the protection of their habitat, another is through protection of the wolves themselves, and a third way is through captive breeding programs that breed wolves and release them in areas where they used to live.


In what ways are sulfate and sulfide different?

Sulfate is a chemical compound containing sulfur and oxygen in the form of SO4^2-, while sulfide is a compound containing sulfur and a metal element in the form of S^2-. Sulfate is commonly found in minerals and salts, while sulfide can be found in minerals and some metal ores. Sulfate is generally more soluble in water compared to sulfide.
