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.

Three common ores of iron are FeO, Fe2O3, and Fe3O4. Iron ores are often reduced to elemental iron by heating in the presence of
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Answers are explained below

Explanation:

(a)

Oxidation number of iron :

FeO = +2

Fe2O3= +3

Fe3O4 = +2 and +3 since Fe3O4 is the mixture of FeO and Fe2O3.

(b) FeO + CO ----> Fe (s) + CO2

(c) In a pure iron metallic bond is exist between the particles of Fe. But in the form of ore metals forms ionic bond with the non-metals.

Hence the properties vary.

Yes carbon steel has greater strength than that of pure iron but retains the property of iron because no chemical reaction occurs between carbon and iron.

d)

Mixing of carbon in iron is a type of physical change since there is no chemical reactions occur between the carbon and iron. Carbon atoms diffuses in the place between the iron atoms.

(f) One of the property of non-metals are brittleness. It is non ductile .

So when the percentage of carbon increases its atoms also occupying more and more free places.

And increasing the brittleness. So the iron becomes less ductile.
