Question

explain with diagram electrolytic reduction of aluminum​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Electrolysis of the alumina/cryolite solution gives aluminium at the cathode and oxygen at the anode. 4Al3+ + 12e- → 4Al (aluminium metal at the (-)cathode) reduction. ... Carbon dioxide is also given off at the carbon anode because hot oxygen reacts with the carbon anode to form carbon dioxide gas.

Answer 2

Electrolysis of the alumina/cryolite solution gives aluminium at the cathode and oxygen at the anode. 4Al3+ + 12e- → 4Al (aluminium metal at the (-)cathode) reduction. ... Carbon dioxide is also given off at the carbon anode because hot oxygen reacts with the carbon anode to form carbon dioxide gas.
