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.

You just have to pass your final with a grade above 75
Answer:The masses of the reactants and products formed are not included in the question, so we cannot determine the percentage yield of water without knowing the yields of other substances.
However the formulae for percentage yield is;
Percentage yield=experimental yield/theoretical yield X 100
Answer: 733 kcal
Explanation:
According to a system used to calculate the available energy of foods, we have the following data:
- protein has 4 kcal/g
- carbohydrates has 4 kcal/g
- fat has 9 kcal/g
- alcohol has 7 kcal/g
So, we are told Jhon and his wife's dinner has:
- 55 g of carbohydrates
- 36 g of protein
- 27 g of fat
- 18 g of
Now we have to multiply these values by the kilocalories:
- (55 g of carbohydrates)(4 kcal/g)=220 kcal
- (36 g of protein)(4 kcal/g)=144 kcal
- (27 g of fat)(9 kcal/g)=243 kcal
- (18 g of alcohol)(7 kcal/g)=126 kcal
Then we have to sum all, giving the following result:
<h2>733 kcal</h2>
Electron from hydrogen
Electron from carbon
Hope this helps ☺️
