SiO2 + C → SiC + CO The unbalanced equation above shows carbon and silicon dioxide reacting to form silicon carbide (SiC, molar mass = 40.1 g/mol) and copper. Balance it before beginning. Silicon carbide is a semiconductor, and copper is an excellent conductor of electric current.

The extraction of aluminum metal from the aluminum hydroxide in bauxite ore by the Hall-Héroult process is one of the most remarkable success stories of late 19th century practical chemistry, turning aluminum from a rare and precious metal into the cheap commodity it is today. In the first step, aluminum hydroxide reacts to form alumina and water: 2 Al(OH)3(s)-Al₂O3(s) + 3 H₂O(g) In the second step, alumina and carbon react to form aluminum and carbon dioxide: 2 Al₂O3(s)+3 C(s)-4 Al(s) + 3 CO₂(g) Write the net chemical equation for the production of aluminum from aluminum hydroxide and carbon.
