Question:

what is it called when you cast iron from its ore, please help :)?

oxidation, reduction, electrolysis, combustionthanks ;)

Answer:

Well combustion is burning things, which doesn't sound right. Oxidation and reduction both occur during electrolysis. So I think electrolysis is the right answer. I know electrolysis is used for copper, so i assume it would be the same for iron. But don't hold me to that!
