A) \[FeS\]
B) \[CO\]
C) \[C{{u}_{2}}S\]
D) \[S{{O}_{2}}\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
The copper metal is mainly extracted from its sulphide ore, copper pyrites\[(CuFe{{S}_{2}})\]. The \[C{{u}_{2}}O\]obtained can be reduced to copper by treating with\[FeS\]. \[C{{u}_{2}}O+FeS\xrightarrow{{}}FeO+C{{u}_{2}}S\] \[2C{{u}_{2}}S\xrightarrow{3{{O}_{2}}}2C{{u}_{2}}O+2S{{O}_{2}}\] \[2C{{u}_{2}}O+C{{u}_{2}}S\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}6Cu+S{{O}_{2}}\]
