Aluminum is the most abundant metal in the earth's crust. It is also a common household utensi metal. The extraction of Aluminum from its ore is expensive because the metallurgy uses a very high amount of electricity. The extraction of Aluminum metal takes place in a number of steps, which may be summarized below. Step 1: Washing and mechanical processes employed to the ore to remove basic impurities. Step 2: Conversion of Aluminum ore (Bauxite) to powdered Alumina (Al20) by reaction with concentrated NaOH solution. Step 3: Dissolving Alumina in molten Cryolite(Na;AIF6) Step 4: Electrolytic refining of the solution at step 2. (Diagram below) to form pure Aluminum metal. Step 5: Collecting pure molten Aluminum at the cathode, which change later to solid Aluminum metal. graphite cathode lining graphite anode solution of bauxite in cryolite molten aluminium O www.science aid.net As you observed, many changes are taking place in different steps for the above extraction process. Classify them as physical or chemical change and explain why? a) Step 1 b) Step 2 c) Step 3 d) Step 4 d) Step 5
