Extraction Of Metals

Gbogbo ọrọ náà

Most metals are not found pure in the ground; they are locked up in ores as compounds, usually oxides. Winning the metal back is a question of energy and reactivity: a reactive metal clings to its ore and needs electricity to free it, while a less reactive metal can be prised out with carbon. The reactivity series is the master key.

In this lesson you will learn how a metal's position in the reactivity series decides how it is extracted, follow the extraction of iron from hematite in the blast furnace step by step, and see why aluminium, high in the series, must be extracted by electrolysis from bauxite using cryolite and carbon anodes.

Ebumnobi

  1. [Core] Describe the ease in obtaining metals from their ores, related to the position of the metal in the reactivity series
  2. [Core] State that iron from hematite is extracted by reduction of iron(III) oxide in the blast furnace
  3. [Core] State that main ore of aluminium is bauxite and that aluminium is extracted by electrolysis
  4. [Supplement] Describe the extraction of iron from hematite in the blast furnace, limited to: (a) the burning of carbon (coke) to provide heat and produce carbon dioxide C + O₂ → CO₂ (b) the reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide C + CO₂ → 2CO (c) the reduction of iron(III) oxide by carbon monoxide Fe₂O₃ + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO₂

Akọmọ Ojú-ẹkọ

Iron and aluminium are the backbone of modern construction, transport and manufacturing, and extracting them efficiently is a huge industry. Understanding why iron is reduced with carbon while aluminium needs electrolysis shows how chemistry turns the reactivity series into real-world engineering decisions.
