Question:

Which of the processes is used in thermite welding ?

Updated On: Jun 14, 2022
  • $ {TiO_{2} +4Na -> Ti + 2Na2O} $
  • $ {2Al + Fe2O3 -> Al2Oa3 + 2Fe} $
  • $ {SnO2 + 2C -> Sn + 2CO} $
  • $ {CrO3 + 2Al -> Al2O3 + 2Cr} $

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

A mixture of $Al$ and $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ in the ratio of $1 : 3$ is called thermite and is used in thermite welding
Thus, $2Al+Fe_{2}O_{3} \to Al_{2}O_{3}+2Fe$ is used in thermite welding

What are Ores and Minerals? 

Minerals are the naturally occurring, homogeneous inorganic solid substances. They are having a definite chemical composition and crystalline structure, hardness and color. For example, copper pyrite, calamine, etc.

Impurities in an ore are called gauge. The removal of a gauge from the ore is called concentration ore. 

Several steps are involved in the extraction of pure metal from ores. Major steps are as follows –

  • Concentration of the ore
  • Isolation of the metal from its concentrated ore
  • Purification of the metal
