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.

Please help<br> Explain why a molecule that has polar bonds can be a polar molecule.
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Well, obviously a molecule with polar bonds can be polar in itself. It's like saying I am an atheltic person who can just reach the basketball rim with my head and also I can dunk.

But if the question is how can a molecule that in non-polar have polar bonds, well, its because the polar bonds' dipole cancels each other out. It's like a tight rope. If a person pulls in one direction, it intuitively, the rope would go in that direction. However, if a person pulls in the other direction with the same amount of force, the rope stays still. This is the same case. Although molecules can have different electronegativities, the pull of electrons in one direction is cancelled out by a pull in the opposite direction, making the net dipole 0.

This is common for main VSERP shaped molecules like linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramidal, and octahedral.
