Detailed Solution

Iron(III) oxide's (Fe2O3) combination with carbon monoxide (CO) to produce iron (Fe) and carbon dioxide (CO2) is a redox reaction because both iron reduction and carbon monoxide oxidation are occurring.The following reaction obtained during extraction of iron,

3Fe2O3+COΔ2Fe3O4+CO2

Fe3O4+COΔ3FeO+CO2

FeO+COΔFe+CO2

After the above reaction calcium silicate is produced as slag.

Hence options A,B,C and D are correct.
