Aluminium extraction from its ore​

Chemistry
1 answer:
klasskru [66]3 years ago
8 0
Aluminium ore is called bauxite. The bauxite is purified to produce aluminium oxide, a white powder from which aluminium can be extracted.

The extraction is done by electrolysis. The ions in the aluminium oxide must be free to move so that electricity can pass through it. Aluminium oxide has a very high melting point (over 2000°C) so it would be expensive to melt it. Aluminium oxide does not dissolve in water, but it does dissolve in molten cryolite. This is an aluminium compound with a lower melting point than aluminium oxide. The use of cryolite reduces some of the energy costs involved in extracting aluminium.

For the reaction A+2B→C under a given set of conditions, the initial rate is 0.100 M/s.What is Δ[B]/Δt under the same conditions
Oliga [24]

Answer: The rate of disappearance ( -Δ[B]/Δt) under the same conditions is 0.200 M/s.

Explanation:

A+2B\rightarrow C

Initial Rate of the reaction = 0.100 M/s

Rate of disappearance of B:

-\frac{1}{2}\frac{\Delta [B]}{\Delta t}=0.100 M/s

-\frac{\Delta [B]}{\Delta t}=2\times 0.100 M/s=0.200 M/s

The rate of disappearance ( -Δ[B]/Δt) under the same conditions is 0.200 M/s.

select all that apply... Which of the following have energy stored as chemical energy? nuclear...petroleum...biomass...geotherma
d1i1m1o1n [39]
<span>Petroleum and biomass are burned in combustion reactions, which liberate energy stored in chemical bonds. This is chemical energy. In contrast, nuclear energy comes from the conversion of mass into energy when an nuclear reaction occurs. Geothermal energy comes directly from heat sources underground, with no chemical or nuclear reactions.</span>
