That’s when a Danish chemist first extracted pinhead-sized bits of aluminum from a mineral called alumina. In 1884, aluminum was even chosen for a place of honor at the very tip of the Washington Monument, because it was such a rare metal. But, extracting aluminum from alumina was very difficult, and for most of the 1800s, aluminum was rare and expensive. It was so valuable that kings and queens had fine tea sets and ornamental objects made of aluminum.

Molten Salt Electrodeposition of Silicon in Cu-Si
Molten Salt Electrodeposition of Silicon in Cu-Si by Samira Sokhanvaran A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Departments of Materials Science and Engineering University of Toronto © Copyright by Samira Sokhanvaran 2014 Molten Salt Electrodeposition of Silicon in Cu-Si Samira Sokhanvaran Doctor of philosophy Departments of Materials Science and Engineering University of Toronto 2014 Abstract Widespread use of solar energy has not been realized to date because its cost is not competitive with conventional energy sources. The high price of solar grade silicon has been one of the barriers against photovoltaic industry achieving its much anticipated growth. Therefore, developing a method, which is energy efficient and will deliver inexpensive silicon feedstock material is essential. The electrodeposition of Si from a cryolite-based melt was investigated in the present work as a possible solution. This study proposed electrowinning of Si in molten Cu-Si alloy, to decrease the working temperature and increase the efficiency. Solvent refining can be used to recover Si from Cu-Si and also as a second purification method. The physicochemical properties of the potential electrolyte, cryolite–SiO2 melts, were studied in the first step of this work. The deposition potential of Si on a graphite cathode was measured to determine the working potential and the effect of SiO2 concentration on it. In the next step, the deposition potential of Si from cryolite– SiO2 melt on Cu and Cu-Si cathodes was determined using cyclic voltammetry. Next, the cathodic and the anodic current efficiencies of the process were measured.

Electrochemistry Electrolysis and Electrolytic Cells Electrolytic Cells Page [1 of 2] in a Galvanic Cell, We Use the Potential of Chemical Reaction to Do Useful Work
Electrochemistry Electrolysis and Electrolytic Cells Electrolytic Cells Page [1 of 2] In a galvanic cell, we use the potential of chemical reaction to do useful work. We get electricity out, in crude terms. An electrolytic cell is the opposite idea of that. In the electrolytic cell, we’re going to put in energy to drive a chemical reaction in the opposite direction that it would normally want to occur in. So let’s look at a couple applications of electrolytic cells. Now, the simplest type of an electrolytic cell would be one in which the electrolyte – now remember, we need electrolyte in order to conduct charge. The electrolyte, the solvent and the consumables, if you will – the chemicals involved in the reaction – are all the same thing. Well, a convenient way to do that is to take a salt, like sodium chloride, and melt it. Now, remember, ionic materials themselves are not conductive. But when they are melted, they become very conductive, because the ions become mobile. So by taking a molten salt and putting two electrodes in the molten salt and applying a potential sufficient to cause a chemical reaction, we have, essentially, an electrolytic cell. Now, in the case of sodium chloride, what would be going on? Well, at the anode, the only thing we have to oxidize is chloride and chloride would be converted then to chlorine and we get two electrons from that. At the cathode, where the reduction is going to occur, the reduction is going to be sodium plus going to sodium metal. And, again, this is simply because we have nothing else in the pot that we have to worry about.

Electrolysis Worksheet 2 1) an Electrolytic Process Known As Electrorefining Is the Final Stage in Producing Highly Purified Copper
Friday Worksheet Name: ………………. Electrolysis worksheet 2 1) An electrolytic process known as electrorefining is the final stage in producing highly purified copper. In a small-scale trial, a lump of impure copper is used as one electrode and a small plate of pure copper is used as the other electrode. The electrolyte is a mixture of aqueous sulfuric acid and copper sulfate. a) Samples of copper mined typically contain impurities such as silver, gold, cobalt, nickel and zinc. Cobalt, nickel and zinc are oxidised from the copper lump and exist as ions in the electrolyte. Silver and gold are not oxidised and form part of an insoluble sludge at the base of the cell. i. Why should silver and gold never be present as cations in the electrolyte? Ag+ and Au+ ions are stronger oxidants than Cu2+ and hence will deposit before copper. 2) An electrolytic cell was set up using an unknown, molten metal salt, XBr2. The apparatus was set up as shown on the right. a) A current of 1.35 Amperes was applied for 29.0 minutes and 0.772 g of metal X was produced. a. Write a balanced half-equation for the anode and cathode reactions in this electrolytic cell. - 2Br (l) => + 2e + Br2(l) ---- anode X2+ (l) + 2e => X(l) ----- cathode b. Identify metal X deposited on the electrode Step 1 find the total charge delivered => Q =It = 1.35 X 29.0 X 60 = 2349 Step 2 find the mol of electrons => 2349 / 96500 = 0.0243 Step 3 find the mol of metal X => nX = ½ ne = 0.0243/2 = 0.01215 Step 4 find the molar mass of metal X => molar mass = mass/ mol = 0.772 / 0.01215 = 63.5 Hence it is copper.

There are two main types of electrochemical reactions; Electrolytic cells, where electricity from an external source causes a nonspontaneous chemical reaction. Voltaic cells, where a spontaneous chemical reaction produces electricity and can be directed toward an external circuit. Recall the definition of electricity is literally the flow of electrons. So every time you plug in your iPod or cell phone to charge electrons are flowing!! All electrochemical reactions involve the transfer of electrons and are Reduction- Oxidation (Redox) reactions!! Let’s take a minute to review Redox reactions, how to identify which compounds are being reduced and which are being oxidized, the reducing agents and oxidizing agents, and direction of electron flow.

Chapter 10 the S-Block Elements
Chemistry (Chapter – 10) (The s – Block Elements) (Class – XI) Question 10.1: What are the common physical and chemical features of alkali metals? Answer 10.1: Physical properties of alkali metals: (1) They are quite soft and can be cut easily. Sodium metal can be easily cut using a knife. (2) They are light coloured and are mostly silvery white in appearance. (3) They have low density because of the large atomic sizes. The density increases down the group from Li to Cs. The only exception to this is K, which has lower density than Na. (4) The metallic bonding present in alkali metals is quite weak. Therefore, they have low melting and boiling points. (5) Alkali metals and their salts impart a characteristic colour to flames. This is because the heat from the flame excites the electron present in the outermost orbital to a high energy level. When this excited electron reverts back to the ground state, it emits excess energy as radiation that falls in the visible region. (6) They also display photoelectric effect. When metals such as Cs and K are irradiated with light, they lose electrons. Chemical properties of alkali metals: Alkali metals are highly reactive due to their low ionization enthalpy. As we move down the group, the reactivity increases. (1) They react with water to form respective oxides or hydroxides. As we move down the group, the reaction becomes more and more spontaneous. (2) They react with water to form their respective hydroxides and dihydrogens. The general reaction for the same is given as (3) They react with dihydrogen to form metal hydrides.
