Question

Name the metal which can be extracted from the ore: Haematite

Answer 1

1. An ore is a concentration of a mineral that can be used as a major source for the production of metal commercially. But all the minerals cannot be ores. The metal from the mineral can be extracted by the concentration methods and followed by the purification process.
2. Haematite is one of the primary ores of Iron (Fe) and has a chemical formula of ${\mathrm{Fe}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_3$. It is an oxide of iron and this ore has around 70% of iron content in its composition.
3. Therefore, Iron (Fe) is the metal that can be extracted from the ore Haematite.
