White phosphorus, P4\mathrm{P}_{4}, is produced commercially by heating calcium phosphate(V) rock with a mixture of silica, SiO2\mathrm{SiO}_{2}, and coke in an electric furnace at 1400C1400^{\circ} \mathrm{C}. Calcium silicate, CaSiO3\mathrm{CaSiO}_{3}, and carbon monoxide are the other products.

Question 1

Question 1(b)

(a)

The major source of sulfur for the manufacture of sulfuric acid by the Contact process is the de-sulfurisation of 'sour' natural gas.
