The iron produced from the extraction process flows to the bottom of the furnace and is then tapped off because....

• The temperature of the furnace is lower than the melting point of iron

• The temperature of the furnace is higher than the melting point of iron

The impurities in the iron ore will be reacted with Calcium Oxide to produce...

• Sulfur dioxide

• Calcium Silicate

• Calcium Carbonate

• Silica

Calcium Carbonate (Limestone) is converted to Calcium oxide through which reaction

• Nautralisation

• Displacement

• Thermal Decomposition
