Zone refining is based on the principle that-
| 1. | Impurities of low-boiling metals can be separated by distillation. |
| 2. | Impurities are more soluble in molten metal than in solid metal. |
| 3. | Different components of a mixture are differently adsorbed on an adsorbent. |
| 4. | Vapours of volatile compounds can be decomposed in pure metal. |
Which of the following statement is correct?
| 1. | Cast iron is obtained by remelting pig iron with scrap iron and coke using hot air blast. |
| 2. | In the extraction of silver, silver is extracted as a cationic complex. |
| 3. | Nickel is purified by zone refining. |
| 4. | Zr, and Ti are purified by the van Arkel method. |
