Answer:

Alcoa Process:

Al Reaction 2.74: 23+2+32→23++2

Explanation:

2O3 from the Bayer process is chlorinated under reducing condition in the presence of C at (700-900)0 C to produce AlCl3, CO, CO2. AlCl3 vapour from the reaction is condensed at 700C in a fluid bed containing AlCl3 particles. The solid AlCl3 particles containing feed into an electrolytic cell containing a fused chloride electrolyte (AlCl3+NaCl+LiCl) at 7000 C. On electrolysis, Al (liquid) formed at the cathode, gaseous Cl2 liberated at the anode.

Instead, it is extracted by electrolysis. The ore is first converted into pure aluminium oxide by the Bayer Process, and this is then electrolysed in solution in molten cryolite - another aluminium compound. The aluminium oxide has too high a melting point to electrolyse on its own. The usual aluminium ore is bauxite.

Why are complex carbohydrates, such as starches, considered long-term energy sources? A. The human body can break down complex c
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

A. The human body can break down complex carbohydrates into sugar molecules that provide energy.

Explanation:

Strings of glucose, form complex carbohydrates such as starch and glycogen. Glycogen which is a stored form of glucose in humans is a source of long-term energy, and a complex carbohydrate because glycogen can be converted to glucose-1-phosphate which can enter the glycolytic cycle to generate Adenosine triphosphate which is a unit of energy.

This stored form of energy can be slowly broken down to release energy when needed by the body. During exercise, for instance, glycogen can slowly release ATP needed for energy.
