Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.7QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The meaning of roasting and why roasting is a major source of air pollution and acid rain has to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Metallurgy
Metallurgy is the science and technology. It is the method for separate metals from their ores and further converting into alloys.
Roasting in metallurgy
By using air to heat sulphide ore at a high temperature is said to be roasting. This process involved in certain ores, pointedly gas-solid phase reaction at high temperatures with the aim of purifying the metal components form ores.
