What is the difference between Sponge iron and pig iron and their application?
Sponge iron is produced by reducing iron ore pellets in a direct-reduction process, whereas pig iron is produced by melting iron ore with a high-carbon fuel in a blast furnace. Sponge iron is mainly used as a raw material for steelmaking in electric arc furnaces, whereas pig iron is typically used in the production of cast iron and wrought iron products.
Is iron ore a mixture or a compound?
Iron ore is a mixture.
What is taconite used for?
Taconite is a type of low-grade iron ore that is processed into pellets for use in the steel industry. These pellets are a key ingredient in the production of steel, providing the iron content needed for the process. Taconite helps serve the demand for steel in various industries, from construction to automotive manufacturing.
How many ton of iron ore can fit into 46 cubic meters?
The average weight of iron per cubic meter is 2500 kilograms. Therefore 46 cubic meters of iron equal to 115 tons in mass (115 000 kilograms). However, the density of iron varies. There are conversion tables on internet. If you know the density of ore-iron it will become easier to find out the volume to mass ratio more accurately.
What mass of iron ore in kilograms will contain 15.64 grams of iron if the ore contains 0.257 iron by mass?
The mass of iron ore is 6,085 kg.
