    Sodium is prepared by the electrolysis of molten mixture of 40% \[NaCl\] and 60% \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\] because

    A) \[C{{a}^{2+}}\]can reduce the\[NaCl\]into Na.

    B) \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\]helps in electrical conduction.

    C)  this mixture has less melting point than \[NaCl\].

    D) \[C{{a}^{2+}}\]can displace Na from\[NaCl\].

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Sodium is prepared by the electrolysis of molten mixture of 40%\[NaCl\]and 60%\[CaC{{l}_{2}}\] because\[CaC{{l}_{2}}\]reduces the melting point of\[NaCl\]. Hence, the melting point of this mixture is less than\[NaCl\].
