On passing a current through a molten aluminium chloride for some time produced 11.28lit of Cl2 at NTP at anode. The quantity of aluminium deposited at cathode is:
Aluminium oxide may be electrolyte at 10000C to furnish aluminium metal (Atomic mass = 27 amu, 1 Faraday = 96,500 Coulombs). The cathode reaction is Al3+3e−→Alo. To prepare 5.12 kg of aluminium metal by this method would require:
