Detailed Solution

  • It is easier to obtain metal from its oxide as compared to its sulphide and carbonate. 
  • This is because when we extract metal from its respective ore, we have to perform a calcination or roasting step in which carbonates and sulphides of metals are converted into metal oxides.
  • Hence in the case of oxides, we can skip this step and directly reduce oxides to obtain the metal.
  • Thus aluminium is obtained by the electrolytic reduction of Aluminium oxide (Al2O3).
