The metals in the middle of the reactivity series are not very reactive. The oxides of the metals can be reduced to metals by heating alone. The sulphide and carbonate ore are first converted into a their oxides by roasting or calcination respectively. Then those metal oxides are reduced to the corresponding metal by using a suitable reducing agent. Such as carbon.
* The metal which are high up in the reactivity series are very reactive. Therefore these metals are obtained by electrolysis.
