B

Fe2O3 + 3C  Heat \xrightarrow { \text { Heat } } 2Fe + 3CO

C

2 PbS + 3O2  Heat \xrightarrow { \text { Heat } } 2PbO + 2SO2

D

Al2O3. 2H2O  Heat \xrightarrow { \text { Heat } } Al2O3 + 2H2O

Answer

Fe2O3 + 3C  Heat \xrightarrow { \text { Heat } } 2Fe + 3CO

Explanation

Solution

We know that smelting is reduction with carbon.
