MCQ
In Hall’s process, the main reagent is mixed with
  • A
    $NaF$
  • $N{a_3}Al{F_6}$
  • C
    $Al{F_3}$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$N{a_3}Al{F_6}$
b
(b) Pure alumina is a bad conductor of electricity and the fusion temperature of pure alumina is about $2000\,^°C$ and at this temperature when the electrolysis is carried of fused mass the metal formed vapoureses as the boiling point of $Al$ is $1800\,^°C$.
To overcome this difficulty, $N{a_3}Al{F_6}$ and $Ca{F_2}$ are mixed with alumina.
