Which of the following statements is/are correct about slag ?

Answer»

The slag is lighter than molten metal
The calcium silicate, `CaSiO_3` is obtained is slag formation zone in the extraction of iron from haematite ore
In blast furnace/Bessemer converter , the upper layer of molten liquid (i.e. molten metal) is of slag
The slag is fusible MATTER.

Solution :(A)True statement
(B)`CaCO_3 overset(DELTA)toCaO+CO_2`
`CaO+SiO_2 to CaSiO_3`
These reactions take place in slag formation zone at temperature `~~`1275 K
(C ) True statement.
(D)INFUSIBLE matter + Flux =Fusible matter (slag)
