It is impossible to extract or derive iron metal from the electrolysis of the aqueous solution provided. The option left is to carry out the electrolysis on the molten salt.

<h3>What is Electrolysis?</h3>

Electrolysis refers to the process of causing a chemical decomposition in a liquid or solution that contains ions by sending electric currents via such a solution.

Electrolysis is used primarily for:

Extraction (also known as electrowinning); or
Purification (also known as electrorefining) of metals from their ore state.
