प्रश्न
For the substance given below, describe the role played in the extraction of aluminium.
Cryolite
उत्तर
- It lowers the fusion temperature from 2050°C to 950°C and enhances conductivity.
- This, in turn, improves the electrolyte's conductivity and reduces the need for electricity, which is the primary energy source for alumina reduction.
