Chapter 21, Problem 21.16CP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given methods, a method suitable for metals having most negative E0 value has to be identified.

Concept introduction:

  • Reduction of an ore can be done by chemical reduction or electrolysis.
  • It depends on metal activity which is determined by standard reduction potential of metals.
  • The most active metals are hard to reduce because of its negative standard reduction potential.
  • The least active metals are easy to reduce because of its positive standard reduction potential.
  • A table defines reduction methods of various metal ores is given as follows,
