Detailed Solution
Carbon reduction process is used to reduce less electropositive metals. Mg and Al have high electropositivity. MgO+C→at high temp.2000ocMg+COIt is possible at high temperatures, so it is not used for commercial purposes.Hence, cannot be extracted from oxides through the carbon reduction process.
