- AA mixture of and undergoes self-reduction to produce and
- BIn the extraction process of copper from copper pyrites, silica is added to produce copper silicate.
- CPartial oxidation of sulphide ore of copper by roasting, followed by self-reduction produces blister copper.

Correct answer: A, C, D
-
Check option A
In extraction of lead from galena, some is oxidized to during roasting: Then self-reduction occurs between and : Thus, a mixture of and produces and .
Hence, A is correct.
-
Check option B
In extraction of copper from copper pyrites, silica is added as a flux to remove iron oxide impurity: The slag formed is iron silicate, not copper silicate.
Hence, B is incorrect.
-
Check option C
In copper extraction from sulphide ores, partial roasting converts part of the sulphide into oxide: Then self-reduction occurs: The copper obtained is blister copper.
Hence, C is correct.
-
Check option D
In the cyanide process, gold dissolves as sodium dicyanoaurate(I), . Zinc powder is added to precipitate gold: Therefore zinc displaces gold from the complex.
Hence, D is correct.
