Obtaining zinc from the ore consists of 54.0% of the metal sulfide and silica impurities, is made to calcine the ore and reducing the oxide formed with an initial amount of carbono.Para x 1.00 ³ 10 kg of ore, calculate:
1. the volume of air, measured at STP, necessary to complete the roasting, knowing that should be employed 40.0% more than the oxidation mixture;
2nd mass of zinc obtained, considering that the reduction step is a loss of 10.0% metal;
3. the mass of coke, containing 90.0% carbon, used in the reduction of all the zinc oxide formed, taking into account the need for an excess of 50.0% carbon.
