Aluminium metal.......

Answer 2

"Aluminium can be extracted from the bauxite which is a hydrated oxides of aluminium. Bauxite which contains only 30%-54% of alumina is the primary ore of Aluminium.

The aluminium is separated from the Bauxite ore is done by Bayer's process, in which the bauxite is crushed and purified.

Thus, gives aluminium hydroxide, to form alumina through calcined. By Hall-Heroult process, aluminium is smelt from the alumina. This process needs enormous amount of electricity."
