1. (a) The conversion of metal sulphide to metal oxide involves the
process of roasting (i.e., x is roasting).
The metal oxides can then be converted to impure metal by reduction.
Of the given choices in (a) and (b) the reduction process is that of
smelting. (i.e., ‘y’ is smelting)
The conversion of impure metal to pure metal involves a process of
purification. Thus it is electrolysis.
2. (b)

5. (a) Dolomite on calcination gives CaO, MgO which provides basic
lining in furnace.

) is a bad conductor of electricity. Therefore,
cryolite (Na

AlF

) and fluorspar (CaF
2
) are added to purified
alumina which not only make alumina a good conductor of
electricity but also reduce the melting point of the mixture to
around 1140 K.
14. (d) The sulphide ore is roasted to oxide before reduction because the 
 of most of the sulphides are greater than those of CS
2
 and
H
2
S, therefore neither C nor H can reduce metal sulphide to metal.
Further, the standard free energies of formation of oxide are much
less than those of SO
2
. Hence oxidation of metal sulphides to metal
oxide is thermodynamically favourable.
15. (a) Cuprous oxide formed during roasting of cuprous sulphide is
mixed with few amount of cuprous sulphide and heated in a
reverberatory furnace to get metallic copper.
16. (a) Zone refining is based on the difference in solubility of impurities
in molten and solid state of the metal. This method is used for
obtaining metals of very high purity.

purification of titanium.
