Question 211 Mark
In order to obtain one tone of aluminium, the following inputs are required:
4 tones of bauxite, 150 Kg of sodium hydroxide and 600 Kg of graphite.
The aluminium compound in bauxite is aluminium oxide and the main impurity is iron (II) oxide. Aluminium is obtained by the electrolysis of aluminium oxide dissolved in cryolite.
In construction work, why is the alloy of aluminium, duralumin used rather than pure aluminium.
Answer
Duralumin is light, strong and more resistant to corrosion than aluminium.
