Why is hot air blasted through the furnace?

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

The air contains oxygen. The oxygen allows the coke (carbon) to burn and form carbon dioxide. This reaction gives out heat, i.e., it is exothermic, so it heats up the furnace.
The air contains oxygen. The oxygen allows the iron ore to burn and form carbon dioxide. This reaction gives out heat, i.e., it is exothermic, so it heats up the furnace.
The air contains oxygen. The oxygen allows the limestone to burn and form carbon monoxide. This reaction gives out heat, i.e., it is exothermic, so it heats up the furnace.

Iron ore, limestone and ❌ are fed into the top of the furnace. Then ❌ is blasted through the furnace. ❌ in the hot air reacts with ❌ to form ❌ and then the carbon dioxide reacts with the coke to form ❌. This gas reacts with ❌ changing it to ❌. In the end the ❌ reacts with the ❌ to form ❌ which runs to the bottom of the furnace where it ❌ the molten iron. During this process the ❌ runs to the bottom of the furnace where it is ❌.

Write out the fully balanced equation for the reaction that the resulting gas will have with iron.
- When a number is placed after an element it is regarded as a subscript. Before an element it is regarded as a coefficient

( Fe, CO )( 2, 3, 4 )( O, Fe )( 3, 2, 4 ) + ( 3, 2, 4 )( CO, C, O, Fe ) ---> ( 2, 3, 4 )( Fe, CO, O, C ) + ( 3, 2, 4 )( CO, C, O, Fe )( 2, 3, 4 )
