Electrolytic refining is used for the extraction of aluminum. Which electrolyte is used in this process?

Which of the following metals cannot be extracted by carbon reduction process?

Bessemerization is used in the extraction of

What happens during the Bessemerization process in the extraction of copper from copper pyrites?

Tin is obtained from cassiterite by reduction with coke. Use the data given below to determine the minimum temperature (in $K$) at which the reduction of cassiterite by coke would take place.
At $298 \ K$: $\Delta_{f}H^{\circ}(SnO_{2(s)}) = -581.0 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,$\Delta_{f}H^{\circ}(CO_{2(g)}) = -394.0 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
$S^{\circ}(SnO_{2(s)}) = 56.0 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$,$S^{\circ}(Sn_{(s)}) = 52.0 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$
$S^{\circ}(C_{(s)}) = 6.0 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$,$S^{\circ}(CO_{2(g)}) = 210.0 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$
Assume that the enthalpies and the entropies are temperature independent.

What should be the considerations during the extraction of metals by electrochemical method?
