    The slag formed in extraction of copper is

    A) \[CuFe{{S}_{2}}\]    

    B)  \[C{{u}_{2}}O+FeS\]

    C)  \[C{{u}_{2}}S+FeO\]

    D)  \[FeSi{{O}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    In the extraction of copper, the impurities of iron oxide combine with silica (flux) and form insoluble slag.                 \[FeO+Si{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{slag}{\mathop{FeSi{{O}_{3}}}}\,\]
