Metals like sodium, potassium, magnesium, etc. are extracted by electrolysis of their chlorides in molten state.

These metals are not extracted by reduction of their oxides with carbon because:

Carbon has less affinity for oxygen than these metals

Carbon is a weaker reducing agent than these metals

These metals easily form oxides with oxygen, their oxides are very stable. Affinity to the oxygen is one the greatest of all elements.

Reducing agent is element or compound who loose electrons in chemical reaction. Sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium are very strong reducing agents because they easily loose one or two valence electrons.

Electrolysis is a chemical methode that uses electric currents for chemical reactions.

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The term conclusion best illustrates the given statement.

Explanation:

Conclusion refers to a decision or judgment that can be acquired by reasoning. From the observation mentioned in the given table:  

1. The steel, aluminum, and bronze took 27, 45 and 80 seconds to dissolve small section of wax, this signifies that more time will be needed by them to transfer heat to the food while cooking. Thus, food will take more time to cook in them.  

2. Copper consumed less time, that is, 15 seconds to melt the section of wax than the other metal pots, which signifies that it is a good conductor of heat than the others. Thus, the copper pot would be good for cooking food briskly.  

After evaluating the results and observations in an experiment, the conclusion was made that pots made of copper are best for cooking foods.
