Hematite ( FeO) is ore of iron . The free metal Fe is obtained in a large scale from hematite by reducing it with carbon monoxide , CO in a blast furnace.

The reactions taking place in blast furnace are :

3 F e_{2} O_{3} + CO \to 2 F e_{3} O_{4} + C O_{2}

F e_{3} O_{4} + CO \to 2 F e O + C O_{2}

F e O + CO \to F e + C O_{2}

Hence, Option "D" is the correct answer.
