Vedclass · Answer

(C) In the blast furnace,iron oxides are reduced by carbon monoxide $(CO)$ at different temperature zones.$1$. At lower temperatures $(500-800 \ K)$: $3Fe_{2}O_{3} + CO \longrightarrow 2Fe_{3}O_{4} + CO_{2}$ and $Fe_{3}O_{4} + CO \longrightarrow 3FeO + CO_{2}$.$2$. At higher temperatures $(> 1000 \ K)$: $FeO + CO \longrightarrow Fe + CO_{2}$.Option $C$ is incorrect because $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ is being reduced to $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ (an oxidation process) and it produces solid carbon,which does not occur in this reduction sequence.
