Hey Detroit, good to see you again. e) The methods used to purify the ore (concentrate the ore) are: • Froth flotation I. The reducing agent in the given equation is: Cu_2S + 2Cu_2O (s) 6Cu (s) + SO_2 (g) In this reaction, sulfur in Cu_2S is oxidized from -2 to +4 in SO_2. Therefore, Cu_2S acts as the reducing agent. The reducing agent is Cu_2S. II. This type of copper is called "blister copper" because during the solidification of molten copper, sulfur dioxide gas (SO_2) escapes, creating blisters or bubbles on the surface of the copper.
