How is arsenic produced?..

Answer / Babalu Gautam

Arsenic is primarily produced as a byproduct in the mining and smelting of other metals, such as copper, lead, and zinc. The most common method for extracting arsenic is from the ore called arsenopyrite (FeAsS). This process involves roasting the ore in air to produce arsenic trioxide, which is then reduced with carbon to obtain elemental arsenic.
