Exam-ready answer • 02 Mark
✓Answer
(a) Haematite
Explnation: Haematite is an iron ore that can be concentrated by magnetic separation because it contains iron, which is magnetic.
(b) CH
Explnation: Molecular formula of Ethyne is C2H2. The simplest whole-number ratio of carbon to hydrogen atoms is 1:1. Therefore, its empirical formula is CH.
