Chemistry Question on General Principles and Processes of Isolation of Elements

Froth floatation process of concentration is based on the

A

preferential wetting properties with the frothing agent and water

B

difference in the specific gravities of gangue and ore particles

C

difference in solubility of gangue and ore particles in frothing agent and water

D

difference in reactivity of gangue and ore particles with water and frothing agent

Answer

preferential wetting properties with the frothing agent and water

Explanation

Solution

froth floctation is a method of concentration of suphide ores which is based on the difference in wetting properties of the ore and gangue. with water and oil. (frothing agent).
