mole of BaSO4 n=1.43/233

mole of FeS2=(1/2)n

%=(1/2)n100/0.85

FeS₂ + O^2--->Fe + SO₄^2----> + Ba²⁺---->BaSO₄

Now mol wt of BaSO₄=137+32+64=233
233 gm BaSO₄ has 32 gm S
so,1.43gm----------0.1964 gm S(by calculation)

Again in FeS₂,64 gm S combines with 56 gm Fe
Hence 0.1964 gm S--------56 x 0.1964 / 64==0.17185 gm Fe...

Hence total wt of FeS₂ in ore==0.17185+0.1964=0.36825 gm, which is almost 43.3% of the given ore.....(Ans)....
