    Alumino-thermic process is used for the extraction of metals, whose oxides are

    A) Fusible

    B) Not easily reduced by carbon

    C) Not easily reduced by hydrogen

    D) Strongly basic

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Alumino thermite process involves reduction of oxides such as \[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}},\,\,M{{n}_{3}}{{O}_{4}},\,C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\] etc. to metals with aluminum. \[C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}+2Al\to A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}+2Cr\]\[\Delta H=-\text{ve}\]
