Heating of a ore below its melting point in the absence of air is known as – (1) Refining (2) Calcination (3) Roasting (4) Smelting

1 Answer

Answer :

(2) Calcination Explanation: Calcination involves simple decomposition of ore on heating below its melting point usually in absence of air to produce new compounds having higher percentage of metal as well as removing the moisture, organic matter and volatile impurities. Calcination makes the ore porous.
