- B Addition of lowers the melting point of alumina.
- C is evolved at the anode during electrolysis.
- D The cathode is a steel vessel with a lining of carbon.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Hydrated precipitates, when is bubbled through a solution of sodium aluminate.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(A) \(2\text{ NaAlO} _2+3 \text H _2\text O + \text{CO} _2 \longrightarrow 2 \text{Al} (\text{OH})_3\) \(+~ \text{Na} _2 \text{CO} _3\) (B) In Hall-Heroult process and is mixed with to lower melting point and increase conductivity.

Properties such as boiling point, freezing point and vapour pressure of a pure solvent change when solute molecules are added to get homogeneous solution. These are called colligative properties. Applications of colligative properties are very useful in day-to-day life. One of its examples is the use of ethylene glycol and water mixture as anti-freezing liquid in the radiator automobiles.
