Tell me about Reductions and flux and it's reaction formulas ?

Question

Accepted Answer

Reductions and flux are chemical reactions used in metallurgy to extract metals from their ores.

Reduction is the process of removing oxygen from a metal oxide to obtain the metal.
Flux is a substance that is added to the ore to lower its melting point and to remove impurities.
The reaction formula for reduction is: Metal oxide + Carbon → Metal + Carbon dioxide
The reaction formula for flux is: Impurities + Flux → Slag
Examples of flux include limestone, silica, and borax.
Reduction is used to extract metals such as iron, copper, and zinc from their ores.
Flux is used in the smelting process to separate impurities from the metal.
The choice of flux depends on the type of ore being processed and the impurities present.
