Question

extraction of sodium metal and aluminium​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sodium, like many of the most reactive metals, can be extracted by electrolysis of its molten chloride. This can be done in the 'Down's Cell' shown in the diagram. ... In the molten salt the positive sodium ions migrate to the negative cathode electrode and are reduced by electron gain to form liquid sodium atoms.
