Aluminium is extracted from alumina (Al2O3)\mathrm{(A}{\mathrm{l}_2}{\mathrm{O}_3}) by electrolysis of a molten mixture of:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Al2O3+Na3AlF6+CaF2\mathrm{A}{\mathrm{l}_2}{\mathrm{O}_3} + \mathrm{N}{\mathrm{a}_3}\mathrm{Al}{\mathrm{F}_6} + \mathrm{Ca}{\mathrm{F}_2}
Option A (Al2O3+Na3AlF6+CaF2\mathrm{A}{\mathrm{l}_2}{\mathrm{O}_3} + \mathrm{N}{\mathrm{a}_3}\mathrm{Al}{\mathrm{F}_6} + \mathrm{Ca}{\mathrm{F}_2}) is correct because this mixture lowers the melting point of alumina and increases its conductivity, facilitating electrolysis.
