    Metallic magnesium is prepared by

    A) reduction of \[MgO\] by coke.

    B) electrolysis of aqueous solution of \[Mg{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{2}}.\]

    C) displacement of \[Mg\] by iron from \[MgS{{O}_{4}}\] solution.

    D) electrolysis of molten \[MgC{{l}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] \[\underset{(Molten)}{\mathop{MgC{{l}_{2}}}}\,\xrightarrow{Electrolysis}\underset{Cation}{\mathop{M{{g}^{+2}}}}\,+\underset{Anion}{\mathop{2C{{l}^{-}}}}\,\] Anode \[\to 2C{{l}^{-}}\to 2Cl+2{{e}^{-}},Cl+Cl\to C{{l}_{2}}\] Cathode \[\to M{{g}^{+2}}+2{{e}^{-}}\to Mg\]
