Volume of blast furnace slag is about _______________ times the volume of hot metal (pig iron) of the same weight ?

Correct answer: B. 3

  • A. 1.5
  • B. 3
  • C. 5
  • D. 7

Explanation

For equal mass, blast-furnace slag occupies roughly three times the volume of hot metal because slag has a much lower density. Hence the approximate volume ratio is 3:1.
