Write the equation for the reaction where the aluminum oxide for the electrolytic extraction of aluminum is obtained by heating aluminum hydroxide.
Name the following: A compound added to lower the fusion temperature of electrolytic bath in the extraction of aluminum
Explain with reason:
Carbon can reduce lead oxide but not aluminium oxide.
In order to obtain 1 tonne of aluminium, the following inputs are required: 4 tonnes of bauxite, 150 kg of sodium hydroxide and 600 kg of graphite. The aluminium compound in bauxite is aluminium oxide and the main impurity is iron (III) oxide. Aluminium is obtained by the electrolysis of aluminium oxide dissolved in cryolite.
- Write the formula of cryolite.
- Write down the word which correctly completes the following sentence.
By dissolving aluminium oxide in cryolite, a ______ (conducting/non-conducting) solution is produced. - Why is so much graphite required for the electrolytic process?
- Write the equation for the reaction which takes place at the cathode.
- What is cathode made up of?
The reason for using Aluminium in the alloy duralumin is ______.
Aluminium is extracted from its chief ore bauxite. The ore is first purified and then the metal is extracted from it by electrolytic reduction.
Name a chemicals used for dissolving aluminium oxide. In which state of sub-division is the chemical used?
The following is an extract from 'Metals in the Service of Man, Alexander and Street/Pelican 1976':
| 'Alumina (aluminium oxide) has a very high melting point of over 2000°C so that it cannot readily be liquefied. However, conversion of alumina to aluminium and oxygen, by electrolysis, can occur when it is dissolved in some other substance.' |
- Which solution is used to react with bauxite as a first step in obtaining pure aluminium oxide?
- The aluminium oxide for the electrolytic extraction of aluminium is obtained by heating aluminium hydroxide. Write the balanced chemical equation for this reaction.
- Name the element which serves both as the anode and the cathode in the extraction of aluminium.
- Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs at the cathode during the extraction of aluminium by electrolysis.
- Give the balanced chemical equation for the reaction which occurs at the anode when aluminium is purified by electrolysis.
