Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wut, can you rewrite it?
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.

The mass of electrons, protons, and neutrons:
electrons 9.10938291*10^-31 kg
protons 1.67262178*10^-27 kg
neutrons 1.6749*10^-27 kg
the mass of electrons is way smaller than both, the mass of protons and neutrons
therefore, 1) the mass of 2 electrons is the smallest
