प्रश्न
Answer the following question with respect by hydrogen : Identify the components of the electrolyte other than pure alumina and the role played by each.
उत्तर
Components of electrolyte: Cryolite and fluorspar
Role played by each electrolyte is given below:
- Cryolite lowers the fusion temperature from 2050°C to 950°C and enhances conductivity.
- Fluorspar andcryolite act as a solvent for the electrolytic mixture and increase conductivity.
