Atomic (Metallic) Radii FIGURE 23-1 • Atomic radii of the d-block elements General Chemistry: Chapter 23
Electron Configurations and Oxidation States • The ionization energies are fairly constant across the table. • Standard electrode potentials increase in value across the series. • With the exception of the oxidation of Cu to Cu2+, however, all these elements are more readily oxidized than hydrogen. This means that the metals displace H2 from H+(aq). FIGURE 23-2 • Positive oxidation states of the elements of the first transition series General Chemistry: Chapter 23
Ionic and Covalent Compounds • Ionic and covalent characters are displayed. • MnO is a green ionic solid, mp1785 C. • Mn2O7 boils at r.t. and is highly explosive. • Often occur as polyatomic cations or anions. • VO2+, MnO4-,and Cr2O72- for example. General Chemistry: Chapter 23
Catalytic Activity Ni and Pt are heterogeneous catalysts. Pt, Rh, and Pd are used in catalytic converters. V2O5 is used in conversion of SO2 to SO3. Polyethylene production. General Chemistry: Chapter 23
H2 and C2H4 molecules adsorb onto the metal surface, causing weakening of the H-H bond and the π-bond in C2H4. • H atoms become bonded to carbon atoms, converting C2H4 to C2H6, which desorbs from the metal surface.

23-2 Principles of Extractive Metallurgy • Concentration is the first of four steps in the metallurgical process. • Subsequent steps are Roasting, Reduction, and Refining. FIGURE 23-5 • Concentration of ore by flotation
Roasting Δ ZnCO3(s) ZnO(s) + CO2(g) Δ 2 ZnS(s) + 3 O2(g) 2 ZnO(s) + 2 SO2(g) • An ore is roasted (heated to a high temperature) to convert a metal compound to its oxide, which can then be reduced. • For zinc, the commercially important ores are ZnCO3 (smithsonite) and ZnS (sphalerite). • ZnCO3 like the carbonates of the group 2 metals, decomposes to ZnO(s) and when it is strongly heated. • When strongly heated in air, ZnS(s) reacts with O2 producing ZnO(s) and SO2. In modern smelting operations, SO2 is converted to sulfuric acid rather than being vented to the atmosphere.
Reduction Δ ZnO(s) + C (s) Zn (s) + CO(g) Δ ZnC(s) + CO(g) Zn (s) + CO2(g) • Because it is inexpensive and easy to handle, carbon, in the form of coke or powdered coal, is used as the reducing agent whenever possible. Several reactions occur simultaneously in which both C(s) and CO(g) act as reducing agents. The reduction of ZnO is carried out at about 1100oC , a temperature above the boiling point of zinc. The zinc is obtained as a vapor and condensed to the liquid. • The metal produced by chemical reduction is usually not pure enough for its intended uses. Impurities must be removed; that is, the metal must be refined. The refining process chosen depends on the nature of the impurities. The impurities in zinc are mostly Cd and Pb, which can be removed by the fractional distillation of liquid zinc.

Zone Refining • As a heating coil moves up the rod of material, melting occurs. Impurities concentrate in the molten zone. • The portion of the rod below the molten zone is purer than the portion in or above the molten zone. • With each successive passage of the heating coil, the rod becomes purer. FIGURE 23-6 • Zone refining General Chemistry: Chapter 23
Zone Refining • The red line shows the freezing points of solutions of impurity B in substance A. • The blue line gives the composition of the solid that freezes from these solutions. • In some cases, the blue line is nearly coincident with the temperature axis. • When a solution of composition l1 is cooled to temperature T1 it freezes to produce a solid of composition s1. If a small quantity of this solid is removed from the solution and melted, it produces a new liquid, l2. The freezing point of l2 is T2 and the composition of the solid freezing from the solution is s2. • With each melting/freezing cycle, the melting point increases and the point representing the composition of the solid moves closer to pure A. In zone refining the melting/freezing cycles are conducted continuously, not in batches as described here. FIGURE 23-7 • The Principle of zone refining

Alternative Methods to Extractive Metallurgy • Many ores contain several metals and it is not always necessary to separate them. • Fe(CrO2)2 can be reduced to ferrochrome and can be added directly to iron to produce steel. • V2O5 and MnO2 are also added to iron to produce other types of steel.
