In the commercial electrochemical process for aluminium extraction, the electrolyte used isA. `Al(OH)_3` in NaOH solutionB. An aqueous solution of `Al_2(SO_4)_3`C. A molten mixture of `Al_(2)O_3` and `Na_(3)AlF_6`D. A motlen mixture of `Al_(2)O_3 ` and `Al(OH)_3` |

Answer» Correct Answer - C Lead is mainly extracted from galena (PbS). The metallic sulphides like `Cu_(2)S`, PbS, HgS, `Sb_(2)S_(3)` etc., when heated strongly in free supply of air and `SiO_2` (roasting ) get reduced directly to free metal .This is called auto reduction or self reduction. `2PbS + 3O_2` `rarr` 2PbO + `2SO_4` , 2PbO + PbS `rarr` 3Pb + `SO_2` Tin is generally from tin stone. Metal is obtained by carbon reduction process. `SnO_(2) + 2C overset(Delta)toSn+2COuarr` |
