The material which is used as source for commercial production aluminum is bauxite.

The aluminum can be extracted from bauxite ore by the process of Bayer process.

In the Bayer process, bauxite ore is heated in the pressure vessel along with a caustic soda solution (sodium hydroxide) at a temperature between 150 to 200 °C. At this temperatures, the aluminium is dissolved in the solution as sodium aluminate in the extraction process. After separation of the residue by filtering, when the liquid is cooled gibbsite is precipitated and then it is seeded with fine-grained aluminum hydroxide crystals from previous extractions. The precipitation take 7-19 days without the addition of seed crystals.

This extraction process converts the aluminium oxide to soluble sodium aluminate, NaAlO2, which afterward converted into aluminum hydroxide and then into aluminum oxide.

Thus, we concluded that the material which is used as source for commercial production aluminum is bauxite ore.

A 1.36 kg hammer at 22 ms what was the force generated by the hammer
podryga [215]
From the information given, the mass of the hammer seems to be 1.36 kg and the velocity by which it is wielded seems to be 22 m/s. The most suitable formula to be used here is : f = m × v where f is force, m is mass and v is velocity. f = m × v → f = 1.36 × 22 → f = 29.92 kg m/s Therefore the force generated by the hammer is 29.92 N ( kg m/s is the same as Newton)
