In the extraction of aluminium metal, one of the process is summarised as follows:
Which of the following entries incorrectly summarises reagents, electrodes & products of the process?
A | B | C | D | E | |
1. | NaOH | Al3+ | HF | Na3AlF6 | Cathode |
2. | NaOH | NaAlO2 | CO2 | NaF | Anode |
3. | H2SO4 | Al2(SO4)3 | NH3 | Na3AlF6 | Cathode |
4. | NaOH | NaAlO2 | CO2 | Na3AlF6 | Cathode |
bauxite with NaOH shows bayers process and separate from impurity and forms sodium metaaluminate.
