प्रश्न
The compound that is not a constituent of the electrolytic mixture used in Hall-Heroult's process is ______.
पर्याय
\[\ce{Al2O3}\]
\[\ce{NaAlO2}\]
\[\ce{Na3AlF6}\]
\[\ce{CaF2}\]
उत्तर
The compound that is not a constituent of the electrolytic mixture used in Hall-Heroult's process is \[\underline{\ce{NaAlO2}}\].
Explanation:
Aluminum from aluminum oxide is extracted using the Hall-Heroult technique (alumina, \[\ce{Al2O3}\]). In order to lower the melting point of alumina and increase the conductivity of the solution, an electrolytic mixture made primarily of molten alumina, a mixture of cryolite \[\ce{(Na3AlF6}\]), and additional fluxes such as calcium fluoride (\[\ce{CaF2}\]) is employed in this process.
