False. When iron ore is heated in a blast furnace, the primary products are molten iron and slag, rather than pure iron and carbon dioxide. The carbon from coke reacts with the oxygen in the iron ore (primarily iron oxide) to produce carbon dioxide and molten iron, but the iron produced typically contains impurities and is not pure iron. Further refining processes are needed to obtain pure iron.

How Is Iron Ore Purified using Carbon?

Iron ore, carbon (also called 'coke') and limestone are heated in a blast furnace. The carbon reacts with oxygen blasted into the furnace from the bottom to form carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide then reduces the the iron ore to molten iron and becomes carbon dioxide in the process. The limestone in the furnace melts the impurities and decomposes to calcium oxide (quicklime). Quicklime and impurities mix together to form 'slag'. The slag floats on top of the molten iron so that the iron can be drained off at the bottom.


What are the products of thermal decomposition of magnesium carbonate?

The thermal decomposition of magnesium carbonate results in the formation of magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide. When heated, magnesium carbonate breaks down into these two products, leaving behind the solid magnesium oxide while releasing the gas carbon dioxide.


Is calcium carbonate being heated into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide endothermic or exothermic?

The reaction of calcium carbonate being heated into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is an endothermic reaction because it requires the input of energy to break the bonds in the calcium carbonate molecule and form the products.
