Which of the following furnaces is used for the production of wrought iron?
Correct answer: A. Open hearth furnace
- A. Open hearth furnace
- B. Reverberatory furnace
- C. Bessemer converter
- D. Blast furnace
Explanation
A puddling furnace is used which is a type of an open hearth furnace, it is constructed to pull hot air over the iron without the fuel coming in direct contact with the iron. Therefore the correct answer will be A.

About Electronic Structure of d-Block Elements
The electronic structure of d-block elements covers the filling of the (n-1)d and ns orbitals, general electronic configurations, and the exceptions shown by chromium and copper. It explains how partially filled d orbitals produce variable oxidation states, coloured ions, magnetic behaviour and complex formation, while distinguishing transition elements from elements with completely filled d subshells.
