(iii) melt the ore (iv) remove arsenic and sulphur impurities

Of these statements :

Detailed Solution: Question 14

The correct answer is Option C.
ROASTING 
The removal of the excess sulphur contained in sulphide ores by heating in an excess of air is called roasting. The concentrated sulphide ore is heated in a reverberatory furnace, below its melting point or fusion temperature in the presence of an excess of air with or without the addition of an external substance. 
In roasting definite chemicals like oxidation, chlorination etc. take place but in calcination does not occur any major chemical changes.
 
Advantages of Roasting :
(i) Excess of sulphur is removed as volatile oxide. 
(ii) The metal sulphide is converted into metal oxide and sulphate. 
(iii) Impurities of arsenic and antimony are removed as their volatile oxides.
